Does it support setting "ip rule" commands if an interface
is up?
http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/settings- spec-08.html
I am not sure I know what you mean (I am not that great netadmin), but I
a lot things can be done with scripts in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/
Did not show this. And it seems not to be able to create tun or tap
devices, which requires only a small ifup-tun script with the old
system.
With the old network service it was still possible to manually use
iwconfig and wpa-supplicant and therefore WPA. Or to create a OpenVPN
tunnel, which I would prefer more than using WPA in terms of security.
But with NetworkManager running, the command line tools usually do not
work as expected.
NetworkManager-openvpn works great here and yes it does create tun0.
