    <!-- METHODS -->

    <method name="Connect">
      <tp:docstring>
	Requests activation of a packet data connection with the network using
	this bearer's properties.  Upon successful activation, the modem can
	send and receive packet data and, depending on the addressing
	capability of the modem, a connection manager may need to start PPP,
	perform DHCP, or assign the IP address returned by the modem to the
	data interface.  Upon successful return, the Ip4Config and/or Ip6Config
	properties become valid and may contain IP configuration information for
	the data interface associated with this bearer.

      <arg name="number" type="s" direction="in">
	<tp:docstring>
	  The number to use for dialing.
      </tp:docstring>
      </arg>
    </method>

    <method name="Disconnect">
      <tp:docstring>
	Disconnect and deactivate this packet data connection.  Any ongoing data
	session will be terminated and IP addresses become invalid when this
	method is called.
      </tp:docstring>

    <!-- For 3GPP (GSM/UMTS/LTE) technologies, Bearer objects represent only
         Primary PDP contexts; Secondary contexts are not exposed as a concept
         because they share everything with their parent primary PDP context
         except QoS and traffic flows.  Instead, methods for setting QoS and
         Traffic Flow Templates (TFTs) should be provided here which could as a
         result of being called create secondary PDP contexts with those QoS and
         TFT parameters.
         
         FIXME: add methods to set QoS/TFT on the Bearer object, which should
         create Secondary contexts if needed, and figure out some method of
         disposing of those secondary contexts when no longer required.

    <!-- PROPERTIES -->

    <property name="Interface" type="s" access="read">
      <tp:docstring>
        The operating system name for the network data interface that provides
        packet data using this bearer.  Connection managers must configure this
        interface depending on the IP "method" given by the "Ip4Config" or
        "Ip6Config" properties set by bearer activation.  If STATIC or DHCP
        methods are given, the interface will be an ethernet-style inteface
        suitable for DHCP or setting static IP configuration on, while if the
        PPP method is given, the interface will be a serial TTY which must then
        have PPP run over it.
      </tp:docstring>
    </property>

    <property name="Connected" type="b" access="read">
      <tp:docstring>
        Indicates whether or not the bearer is connected and thus whether
        packet data communication using this bearer is possible.
      </tp:docstring>
    </property>

    <property name="Suspended" type="b" access="read">
      <tp:docstring>
        In some devices, packet data service will be suspended while the device
        is handling other communication, like a voice call.  If packet data
        service is suspended (but not deactivated) this property will be TRUE.
      </tp:docstring>
    </property>

    <property name="Ip4Config" type="a{sv}" access="read">
      <tp:docstring>
        If the bearer was configured for IPv4 addressing, upon activation this
        property contains the addressing details for assignment to the data
        interface.  If the bearer specifies configuration via PPP or DHCP,
        only the 'method' item will be present.  Available items include:
        
          method:  (uint) One of MM_MODEM_BEARER_IP_METHOD
          address: (string, STATIC method only) IP address
          prefix:  (uint, STATIC method only) Numeric CIDR network prefix (ie, 24, 32, etc)
          dns1:    (string, STATIC method only) First DNS server
          dns2:    (string, STATIC method only) Second DNS server
          dns3:    (string, STATIC method only) Third DNS server
          gateway: (string, STATIC method only) First DNS server
      </tp:docstring>
    </property>

    <property name="Ip6Config" type="a{sv}" access="read">
      <tp:docstring>
        If the bearer was configured for IPv6 addressing, upon activation this
        property contains the addressing details for assignment to the data
        interface.  If the bearer specifies configuration via PPP or DHCP,
        only the 'method' item will be present.  Available items include:
        
          method:  (uint) One of MM_MODEM_BEARER_IP_METHOD
          address: (string, STATIC method only) IP address
          prefix:  (string, STATIC method only) Network prefix
          dns1:    (string, STATIC method only) First DNS server
          dns2:    (string, STATIC method only) Second DNS server
          dns3:    (string, STATIC method only) Third DNS server
          gateway: (string, STATIC method only) First DNS server
