For most protocols, the operations to manage profiles require a unique 'profile-id' as index. This applies to AT, QMI and generic MBIM. But for MBIM using the Microsoft Extensions for profile management, this is no longer true; the device expects the 'apn-type' to be the index. This new property lets the user know which is the expected index field in the Delete() and Set() operations.

org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Modem.Modem3gpp.ProfileManager:
|
|
@short_description: The ModemManager 3GPP profile management interface.
|
|
|
|
This interface provides access to actions with connection profiles.
|
|
|
|
This interface will only be available once the modem is ready to be
|
|
registered in the cellular network. 3GPP devices will require a valid
|
|
unlocked SIM card before any of the features in the interface can be
|
|
used.
|
|
|
|
The user of the interface can optionally choose to use the new profile
|
|
management methods to manage the connection setup, e.g by using the new
|
|
<literal>"profile-id"</literal> setting in either the
|
|
<link linkend="gdbus-method-org-freedesktop-ModemManager1-Modem.CreateBearer">CreateBearer</link>
|
|
or the
|
|
<link linkend="gdbus-method-org-freedesktop-ModemManager1-Modem-Simple.Connect">Connect</link>
|
|
methods. If that's the case, it is suggested that the legacy approach of
|
|
not using the profiles is completely avoided. If both approaches are
|
|
used at the same time, it may happen that a connection attempt not using
|
|
the <literal>"profile-id"</literal> implicitly updates a given profile
|
|
(without emitting
|
|
<link linkend="gdbus-signal-org-freedesktop-ModemManager1-Modem-Modem3gpp-ProfileManager.Updated">Updated</link>),
|
|
as the amount of profiles implemented in modems may be fixed.

Profiles are represented as dictionaries of properties, and any of the

Creates or updates a connection profile on this modem, depending on
|
|
whether the expected
|
|
<link linkend="gdbus-property-org-freedesktop-ModemManager1-Modem-Modem3gpp-ProfileManager.IndexField">index field</link>
|
|
is given or not. If not given, a new profile will be created; otherwise,
|
|
the profile with the given index will be updated.

Profiles are represented as dictionaries of properties, and any of the
|
|
3GPP-specific properties defined in the
|
|
<link linkend="gdbus-property-org-freedesktop-ModemManager1-Bearer.Properties">bearer properties</link>
|
|
are allowed. The real list of supported properties really depends on the
|
|
underlying protocol and implementation, though; e.g. in AT-based modems
|
|
setting <literal>"apn-type"</literal> won't be supported, and instead the
|
|
user should give that setting explicitly when creating the bearer object.
|
|
|
|
The operation may fail if it is attempting to update an existing
|
|
profile for which connected bearer objects already exist. In this case,
|
|
the user should make sure these bearer objects are already disconnected
|
|
before attempting to change the profile settings.
|
|
|
|
The operation may also fail if it is attempting to update the profile
|
|
associated to the settings of the initial EPS bearer, identified by the
|
|
%MM_BEARER_APN_TYPE_INITIAL <literal>"apn-type"</literal> flag. In this
|
|
case, <link linkend="gdbus-method-org-freedesktop-ModemManager1-Modem-Modem3gpp.SetInitialEpsBearerSettings">SetInitialEpsBearerSettings()</link>
|
|
should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
The output @stored_properties will contain the settings that were
|
|
successfully stored, including the new <literal>"profile-id"</literal>
|
|
if the operation was creating a new profile.

If additional settings are given in @properties they are ignored. This

This method may just clear the existing profiles (i.e. reseting all the

properties to defaults) instead of fully removing them if the profiles

This method will fail if the expected index field is not given.

The operation may fail if it is attempting to delete a profile
