Description-en: Perl module for manipulating host network interfaces
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: 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 adequateprivileges
to perform the requested operation or where the operation is not supported.
