Luci interface connect: what does it do in the background?

If I click connect on the interfaces page, what does it do in the background? I expect something like ifdown interface; ifup interface, but I'd like to know for sure, as I want to integrate the action in a bash script.

Looks like just ifup interface:

github.com

openwrt/luci/blob/master/modules/luci-mod-admin-full/luasrc/controller/admin/network.lua#L289


end


function wifi_status(devs)
	local s    = require "luci.tools.status"
	local rv   = { }


	if type(devs) == "string" then
		local dev
		for dev in devs:gmatch("[%w%.%-]+") do
			rv[#rv+1] = s.wifi_network(dev)
		end
	end


	if #rv > 0 then
		luci.http.prepare_content("application/json")
		luci.http.write_json(rv)
		return
	end


	luci.http.status(404, "No such device")
end
