I wasn't clear what I meant about processing of the .network file. With Ethernet or Wi-Fi (using iwd), when the link comes up, systemd-networkd does the Right Thing and starts network services on the interface, running a DHCP client or setting up static address(es), routes, etc., as specified

Mantas' and Ulrich's responses gave me insights to dig more. Neither the mbim-cli nor ModemManager sets the IP address on the interface, and some kind of agent needs to do that. When I start the connection using ModemManager, I am able to retrieve addresses that mmcli displays like the below.

I am trying to integrate an MBIM cellular modem (Sierra Wireless MC7455) into my project, and while there seem to be plenty of people doing the same thing, all of the references seem to point to using ModemManager to set up the connection and NetworkManager to manage the IP config (address,
