Title:
  Please add ability to import Microsoft VPN CMS files

Status in NetworkManager:
  Won't Fix
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  Currently it appears that Network Manager does not have the ability to
  import Microsoft's cms files. These are ini files with options on how
  to set up a vpn client for a configured network. see details here:

  See example here:

  Some users are attempting to connection to these networks and are
  finding they have issues as they can't manually map between the ini
  file and the network manager advanced settings. Although I would say
  that they shouldn't have to do it manually and importing of the file
  should work automatically.
