There's nothing special about ifcfg files that NetworkManager really changes; we've gone to great effort to interpret ifcfg files almost exactly like ifup/ifdown interpret them. So, if you want to use a CLI to create system-wide network connections, you use 'vi' or 'nano' or 'emacs' and write an ifcfg file like you always did. Nothing has changed here. Then you ifup them. Or you use nmcli to activate them. The point is that when creating or activating/deactivating connections that NM supports your workflow should not really change.
