connection_compatible(connection)¶

Parameters:: connection (NM.Connection) – an NM.Connection to validate against self
Raises:: GLib.Error
Returns:: True if the connection may be activated with this device, False if is incompatible with the device’s capabilities and characteristics.
Return type:: bool

Validates a given connection for a given NM.Device object and returns whether the connection may be activated with the device. For example if self is a Wi-Fi device that supports only WEP encryption, the connection will only be valid if it is a Wi-Fi connection which describes a WEP or open network, and will not be valid if it describes a WPA network, or if it is an Ethernet, Bluetooth, WWAN, etc connection that is incompatible with the device.

This function does the same as NM.Device.connection_valid(), i.e. checking compatibility of the given device and connection. But, in addition, it sets GLib.Error when False is returned.

Returns:: True if the connection may be activated with this device, False if is incompatible with the device’s capabilities and characteristics.
Return type:: bool

Validates a given connection for a given NM.Device object and returns whether the connection may be activated with the device. For example if self is a Wi-Fi device that supports only WEP encryption, the connection will only be valid if it is a Wi-Fi connection which describes a WEP or open network, and will not be valid if it describes a WPA network, or if it is an Ethernet, Bluetooth, WWAN, etc connection that is incompatible with the device.
