Net::Interface is a module that allows access to the host network interfaces
|
|
in a manner similar to ifconfig(8). Version 1.00 is a complete re-write and
|
|
includes support for IPV6 as well as the traditional IPV4.
|
|
|
|
Both read and write access to network device attributes including the
|
|
creation of new logical and physical interfaces is available where supported
|
|
by the OS and this module.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: if your OS is not supported, please feel free to contribute new
|
|
capabilities, patches, etc.... see: Net::Interface::Developer
|
|
|
|
ANOTHER NOTE: Many of the operations of Net::Interface, particularly those
|
|
that set interface values require privileged access to OS resources. Wherever
|
|
possible, Net::Interface will simply fail softly when there are not adequate
|
|
privileges to perform the requested operation or where the operation is not
|
|
supported.
