 # Service config manager
 
-The service config manager provides a D-Bus interface to manage BMC services
-as described by the [service management D-Bus interfaces][].
+The service config manager provides a D-Bus interface to manage BMC services as
+described by the [service management D-Bus interfaces][].
 
 The configuration settings are intended to persist across BMC reboots.
 
 An example use case for this service is BMCWeb's implementation of the Redfish
 NetworkProtocol schema.

 ## Design
 
 Implementation details are described in the [D-Bus interface README].
 
-The service config manager generally makes configuration changes to `systemd` units via D-Bus interfaces.
+The service config manager generally makes configuration changes to `systemd`
+units via D-Bus interfaces.
 
 The design pattern to add new services or controls is:
+
 - Determine if the service you want to control is socket activated.
 - To control the `Running` and `Enabled` properties of a service:
-   - For a service which uses socket activation, control the socket.
-   - For other services, control the service unit itself.
