NetworkManager is a program for configuring network devices on Linux. It is widely used by several Linux distributions and can be optionally enabled on NixOS for non-declarative network configuration. Additionally, it is used by several desktop environments.

Installation

NetworkManager can be enabled with the following line:

{

 networking.networkmanager.enable = true;

}

By default, NetworkManager comes with nmcli and nmtui as user interfaces, however, a GTK interface called nm-connection-editor can be found in the nm-applet package.
