Description Max Schettler 2016-05-24 21:22:34 UTC 
When using VPN connections, plasma-nm also displays the tunnel device that is used (see screenshot). I did not check whether the problem also occurs with connections that use a tap-device.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Activate a VPN connection that uses a tun-device.

Actual Results:  
Additionaly to the activated connection the applet displays a connection for the tun-device (e.g. tun0). Disconnecting this connection breaks the VPN without clearing routes, so that its not possible to access the internet anymore.

Expected Results:  
Only one entry should be displayed.
