The following lines were added (+) and removed (-):
== IP Network Configuration (GUI) ==== IP Network Configuration (GUI - Network Manager) == Network Manager is a GUI interface used to configure networking on most modern desktop Linux systems including Ubuntu and Fedora.When configuring IP networking using the GUI interface "Network Manager" settings are stored differently than when configuring via traditional CLI (Command Line Interface).  This is a design often criticized for the confusion it can create.  The administrator can choose to disable Network Manager and use the traditional Debian etc/network/interfaces file.  On a headless console only system the use of Network Manager would not make sense.  It can be disabled and the traditional CLI method may be used.  To disable Network Manager do the following as 'root' or use the sudo command. service network-manager stop echo "manual" | tee /etc/init/network-manager.override More on disabling "Network Manager" can be found on this external source: [http://xmodulo.com/2014/02/disable-network-manager-linux.html How to disable Network Manager on Linux]
