- string Policy [readwrite]
-
- Setting of the device power and connection policy.
- Possible values are "ignore", "off", "auto"
- and "manual".
-
- The policy defines on how the device is initialized
- when brought up and how it connects. The actual
- device power state can be changed independently to
- this value.
-
- If a device is switched off and the policy is changed
- to "auto" or "manual", the device will be switched
- on. For a current active device changing the policy
- to "off" results in powering down the device.
-
- The "ignore" policy can be set for devices that are
- detected, but managed by a different entity on the
- system. For example for complex network setups.
-
- Devices that can connect to various networks, the
- difference between "auto" or "manual" defines if
- known networks are connected automatically or not.
- For simple devices like Ethernet cards, setting
- the "manual" policy might fail.
