I think nmtui is correct because it is a curses application (curses is a terminal control library for Unix-like systems, enabling the construction of text user interface (TUI) applications.) which is accessible from the command line.

yup, the question explicitly mentions "curses" nmtui is correct, nmcli has nothing to do with curses (got it wrong the first time around too, CURSES!)

I think nmtui is correct. "LPI-Learning-Material-102-500-en" In the command line, NetworkManager itself provides two client programs: nmcli and nmtui. Both programs have the same basic features, but nmtui has a curses-based interface while nmcli is a more comprehensive command that can also be used in scripts.

The question specifies " on the command line" . nmtui is a gui whereas nmcli is command line.

According to LPIC-1 Linux Professional Institute Certification Study Guide Exam 101-500 and Exam 102-500, 5th Edition , Page 438 The Network Manager tool also provides two different types of command-line tools: ■ nmtui: Provides a simple text-based menu tool ■ nmcli: Provides a text-only command-line tool

Both can achieve exactly the same things. the main difference is the interface. nmtui gives a simple gui to work with, while nmcli takes input in the command line. As the question asks specificaly for the command line, I feel like nmcli is more correct....
