Hello,

I have a similar use case, to have multiple GSM configuration for a device,
I disabled autoconnect on Networkmanager and I have a dedicated service
(which is built around libnm et limbmm) to be able to
actovate/deactivate/monitor these multiple connection.

I don't think it is possible in NM to have multiple active connection on
the same device.
