Struct Connection 

pub struct Connection {
    pub id: ConnectionId,
    pub medium: Medium,
    pub link: Link,
    pub addresses: Vec<Addr>,
    pub primary_v4: Option<IpAddr>,
    pub primary_v6: Option<IpAddr>,
    pub v4_lease: Option<DhcpLease>,
    pub gateway: Option<Gateway>,
    pub dns: Vec<IpAddr>,
    pub is_default: bool,
    pub default_metric: Option<u32>,
    pub profile: Option<Profile>,
}

A user-facing network connection: one link plus its interpreted state.

Fields

id: ConnectionId

Stable identifier, preferring the NM profile name over the link name.

medium: Medium

What kind of connection this is (Ethernet, Wifi, VPN, etc.).

link: Link

The underlying kernel link, preserved for detail views and jip raw.

addresses: Vec<Addr>

Full list of addresses. Rendering uses Connection::primary_v4 / Connection::primary_v6 by default and collapses the rest.

primary_v4: Option<IpAddr>

The single IPv4 to show in the default view.

primary_v6: Option<IpAddr>

The single IPv6 to show in the default view. Non-deprecated, global.

v4_lease: Option<DhcpLease>

Present when the IPv4 address is dynamic (DHCP).

gateway: Option<Gateway>

L3 gateway and its L2 reachability state.

dns: Vec<IpAddr>

Per-link resolvers (from resolvectl). Falls back to the stub when per-link info is unavailable.

is_default: bool

True when the default route egresses through this connection.

default_metric: Option<u32>

Metric of the default route via this connection, if any. Lower = preferred.

profile: Option<Profile>

NetworkManager profile metadata, when one is attached.
