Using ModemManager getting IP but not reflecting to NetworkManager

[NIKHIL PATIL]

hi Aleksander,
       Thanks for your reply.
i have some douts .

1) Without giving manually a mmcli commands then how we can give ? and when
NetworkManager take automatically ip from ModemManager (mmcli -b 0) and
     assign to LTE interface ?

2) nmcli d output :-
     DEVICE                    TYPE           STATE
 CONNECTION
    wwp0s21f0u5i4        wwan             *disconnected*
 ----

         here TYPE is *wwan* coming not *gsm* , when we are running *nmcli
c add type gsm con-name quectel apn internet  *command
         here we are giving TYPE as gsm . is it will make issue ?

      I tried lot but STATE of LTE interface not Showing *connected* ,
after running mmcli and nmcli commands.
