Hello,
When connman connects to a network, it creates a directory (ethernet_*,
wifi_*, usually under the /lib/connman directory) and saves data about
the network. Some of these data may be sensitive to a GDPR (European
data protection rule) point of view. This may be, for example, the case
for the SSID or even an IP address (especially if it is a public IPv6
address).
In order to be compliant to the GDPR, we have to delete these data if
end user asks for it. Therefore, we would need to have a connman
command, using the DBUS API, which would remove all those directories
(including those for networks which are not currently connected). Does
such a command exist? If not, is it possible to open an issue, and how
(I saw that there is a Jira, but I couldn't open an issue on it because
I don't have an account)?
Regards,
Stéphane Veyret

Hello everyone,
In the past, Yasser Toor has provided you some patches on which we have worked
together. As unfortunately he is working with us anymore, I will continue to
provide you the new fixes, based on 1.38 integrated in our Yocto (3.2)
Best Regards,
Emmanuel Vautrin

Hello everyone,
We have updated our version to 1.38 (via Yocto 3.2), and we are still facing
this issue.
Even if I have noticed that the interface to set the bss expiration age has
been added, we still need to add a call to this interface. On the contrary, we
have still cyclic periods (between bss expiration and before scanning), where
only the favorite networks are listed.
Is it normal?
By our side, we needed to add this patch:

I am using connmand on our embedded devices which have an on-board marvell =

Dear
Is it possible to use connmand to configure and enable a bridge at boot-time
and then use connmand to manage this interface?
Same question for bonding interfaces.
I would like to use a config file like this:
[service_br0]
Type=bridge
IPv4=dhcp
IPv6=off
ports=eth0,eth1
Thanks
Pieter Cardoen
