Package: network-manager (0.7.3-1~bpo50+1 and others) [backports]

[ Source: network-manager  ]

network management framework daemon

NetworkManager attempts to keep an active network connection available at all times. It is intended only for the desktop use-case, and is not intended for usage on servers. The point of NetworkManager is to make networking configuration and setup as painless and automatic as possible. If using DHCP, NetworkManager is _intended_ to replace default routes, obtain IP addresses from a DHCP server, and change nameservers whenever it sees fit.

This package provides the userspace daemons.

Optional dependencies:

 * policykit: Required for reading and writing system connections.
 * ppp: Required for establishing dial-up connections (e.g. via GSM).
 * dnsmasq-base/iptables: Required for creating Ad-hoc connections and
   connection sharing.
 * avahi-autoipd: Used for IPv4LL, a protocol for automatic Link-Local IP
   address configuration.
