Point 1: View all the saved connections

# nmcli connection show
ens1f0     XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX  ethernet  ens1f0
ens1f1     YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY  ethernet  ens1f1
ens10f0    ZZZZ-ZZZZ-ZZZZ-ZZZZ-ZZZZ  ethernet  --
ens10f1    AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA  ethernet  --

Point 2a: Stop Network

You can use the command “nmcli connection down ssid/uuid". For example

# nmcli connection down XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
Connection 'eno0' successfully deactivated (D-Bus active path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/3)

Point 2b: Start Network

You can use the command “nmcli connection up ssid/uuid". For example

# nmcli connection up XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
Connection 'eno0' successfully activated (D-Bus active path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/3)

Point 3: Device Connection

To check the Device status

# nmcli dev status
ens1f0  ethernet  connected     ens1f0
eno1f1  ethernet  connected     ens1f1
eno10f0  ethernet  disconnected  --
eno10f1  ethernet  disconnected  --
