I really don't know what you mean by this. For displaying
devices,
addresses, and routes, they will work like they always have. If you
use it to change the configuration of a device out from under NetworkManager,
well, then you've causes your own issue. (Much like if you change
the address out from whatever /etc/init.d/network configured it
as, actually.)
The question is to make NM aware of such changes (or even do them through
NM).
