nmcli connection down 'Ethernet 1'

Deactivate a connection profile

This disconnects the named profile without deleting it, freeing the interface for another connection. The profile stays saved, so nmcli connection up 'Ethernet 1' brings it back later. If autoconnect is enabled, NetworkManager may immediately reactivate it or switch to another profile.
