I am tasked to do backup and restore for networking settings on linux which uses ConnMan. Is it possible for me to do so by copying settings inside /var/lib/connman and place them in the same folder when doing restore?

If not, any suggestion that I can use instead? Thanks in advance.

I have emailed Jukka Rissanen, the person who works behind ConnMan. He replied this;

Yes, you can backup /var/lib/connman and /var/lib/connman-vpn directories and restore them to same places to get the settings back.

Note that if you restore to different machine than what the backup is from, some settings might not be available because network interface mac address is part of the path name of the settings file.

Cheers, Jukka

Hope this helps anyone who is looking for the answer in the future.
