So I don't quite understand the use of reloading ?
Hi, reload (and `nmcli connection load $FILENAME`) load all (or one) profiles from disk. This is useful if you edited the profile files (/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections, or /etc/sysconfig/network- scripts/ifcfg-*). Reload can also delete profiles (if it delete a file that was previously loaded). It's really not much different than adding/modifying/deleting profiles via `nmcli` or GUI. best, Thomas
