Unless it ships with conman, one of the others, or none at all.
Better to ask for clarification or assume the lowest common denominator.
And even if: "Your distro most probably..." is true, you can't tell from the content of this thread the settings in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf, such as:
Code:
[ifupdown]
managed=false
If the O.P. has Network Manager installed, and the above setting '=true' then it will 'manage' the ifup and ifdown commands - which in turn use the file the O.P. modified.
Translation: You can't assume the O.P. re-invented anything from the thread content here.
