This manual is the reference documentation for NetworkManager, the standard
Linux network management service. It is intended for system administrators and
integrators who need to understand the capabilities of NetworkManager, its
configuration options, command line tools and the D-Bus API for programmatic
control of the service.
</para>
<para>
The end users NetworkManager should instead refer to respective documentation
of their desktop environment of choice.

<para>
The application developers who prefer not to use the D-Bus API directly can use the
<ulink url="https://developer.gnome.org/libnm/stable/">libnm</ulink> library
shipped with NetworkManager or its bindings to a higher level language such as
Python, Ruby or Vala via GObject introspection.
