From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The first time I tried it it had the connected icon but no actual network connection, the second time it didn't do anything
Okay. I didn’t realize you were using a graphical environment. Shouldn’t change anything.
When you say no actual network connection, can you show that with ip address show ens6f1?
It's not doing what it was before now, now it's just showing the 'activation of network connection failed' error. But before when I ran the up command it had the connected sign, and said it was connected in the GUI, but when I tried accessing any website it wasn't able to, and I don't have any firewall installed, so I assumed that the connection wasn't working.
The result for ip address show ens6f1 is now the same as before
12: ens6f1: <BROADCAST, MULTICAST, UP, LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000

I think you’ve got someone helping you with this who’s working with you inside the gui. Rather than cause problems by asking you to try different command line troubleshooting steps that may work at cross purposes with that other thread of assistance, I’m gonna bow out.
If you run into a wall, reboot your server and reply to this post and lll jump back in.
