Script to disable Wifi if/when LAN is connected and vice versa on IGEL OS

I do have a profile on my current UMS, which i tested succesfully some time ago on older firmwares, which disables the Wifi IF , when LAN is connected and vice versa:

echo ‘#!/bin/bash’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘if [ “$1” = “eth0” ]; then’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘case “$2” in’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘up)’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘nmcli radio wifi off’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘;;’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘down)’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘nmcli radio wifi on’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘;;’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘esac’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

echo ‘fi’ >> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

chmod +x /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99-wlan

and the 99-wlan file contains:

#!/bin/bash

if [ “$1” = “eth0” ]; then

case “$2” in

up)

nmcli radio wifi off

;;

down)

nmcli radio wifi on

;;

esac

fi

is this still the way to go to get that effect (Wifi off, when LAN is connected … ) ?

Will write you a PM. Moment.

Following as I have a similar script that we use. Please Post Suggestion here if that does not work well with the newer Firmware versions.

We tested and will put in Github asap.
