Qt Device Utilities 6.11.0

Qt Device Utilities provides APIs for managing network settings on embedded Linux devices. The module is designed for embedded systems using the ConnMan network manager, offering functionality for tasks such as listing network interfaces, configuring IP settings, managing network services, and integrating connectivity settings into embedded UIs.

While Qt Device Utilities supports both Ethernet and wireless networking workflows, Wi-Fi functionality has specific backend requirements that you must account for. Qt Device Utilities relies on the system's network manager, and currently supports only the ConnMan backend. Other network managers are not supported.

Because of these backend constraints, Wi-Fi features work only on Boot to Qt or embedded Linux systems that use ConnMan.
