nmcli only implements file path scheme at present. It seems to me that blob is not very practical for usage in a client. It may be quite cumbersome to write and also display such data. And also there are security issue with displaying that, because e.g. private certificates are sensitive. However we can think it over and consider for 7.2. For 7.1 we could just introduce nmcli specific description saying that certificates can only be passed as file names. The descriptions for certificate properties added - see upstream branch jk/nmcli-certs-rh1182575. LGTM LGTM master: 8ed0e50ff14eb3443e40ea48370db2e73e228157 nm-1-0: 192b25e28399c602e71322654b5254461b8211c5 Verified (NetworkManager-1.0.4-10.el7.x86_64), that the nmcli specific description has been added to all certificate properties: [nmcli specific description] Enter file path to client certificate for inner authentication (optionally prefixed with file://). [file://]<file path> Note that nmcli does not support specifying certificates as raw blob data.
