Dear All,<br />
<br />
Im quite new to the network manager service, It is my understanding that it can be used to dynamically assign connection profiles based on where the end user is located (example Profile A used at work - with the relevent firewalld zones and policies, and profile B used at home with different firewalld settings)<br />
