Network Manager

Goal

Provide a way from the workspace to setup, monitor and configure network connections.

Related Epics

  • Look and Feel Package: Is laid out by elements of the desktop, look and feel package.
  • Desktop elegance: Provides simple way to get the job done
  • Session management process: network is started automatically during startup once set up

Integration Story

Plasma Network Management uses libmm-qt in order to communicate with network manager. Its code is in the plasma-nm repository, branch 'frameworks'.

Porting status

  • libnm-qt (NetworkManager) has been ported to Qt5 (in "qt5" branch)
  • libmm-qt (ModemManager) has been ported to Qt5 (in "qt5" branch), but isn't functional yet due to being in the process of porting to ModemManager 1.0, it's built optional, support can easily be readded later again.
  • Widget has been ported, connection details need work

Roadmap

  • Functional enough for December release
  • Finishing touches in Q1

  • Sebastian Kügler + Solid team
