Important note about NetworkManager
-----------------------------------
It is required to configure properly every connection defined in NetworkManager
because default settings are wrong and conflict with re6st:
- If re6st routes all your IPv6 traffic, using ``--table 0`` option, then make
sure to disable IPv6 in NetworkManager.
- Otherwise, the following options must be set in [ipv6] section::
ignore-auto-routes=true
never-default=true

- Use only for resources on this connection (KDE)
- Use this connection only for resources on its network (Gnome)
