let NM know about custom connection through dbus?

[Christopher Lang <christopher lang acurana de>]

Hi,

lets assume I set up my own (lets call it specialppp) connection, through my 
own application, and I would like NetworkManager to know about that 
connection, display it as "active" in the applet as long it is there, but 
leave it alone apart from that.

Is there a way I can tell NM about such a custom connection through dbus 
methods?

What I am looking for is a dbus API that allows me to tell NM about a 
connection that I set up, and either NM detects on his own if this connection 
goes down, or I can tell him through dbus.

This is related to:

Hints are much appreciated.

thanks,
Chris
