Description

There is a (mostly?) Linux network configuration service [NetworkManager](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/).

Considering this name had been already marked as misleading, using a name of very widely used service creates name conflict which may (uh i suck at writing…)

Just when you search for NetworkManager you get plenty of results for FreeDesktop's NetworkManager which, as both are related to computer networking, use the same terms.
