Copyright (c) 2011-2015 Regents of the University of California.
InterfaceType getType() const
Returns the hardware type of the interface.
InterfaceState getState() const
Returns the current state of the interface.
interface can be used to send and receive packets
interface is administratively up but has no carrier
std::string getName() const
Returns the name of the interface, unique on the system.
util::Signal< NetworkInterface, InterfaceState, InterfaceState > onStateChanged
Fires when interface state changes.
bool isPointToPoint() const
Returns true if the interface is a point-to-point interface.
InterfaceType
Indicates the hardware type of a network interface.
util::Signal< NetworkInterface, uint32_t, uint32_t > onMtuChanged
Fires when interface mtu changes.
InterfaceState
Indicates the state of a network interface.
bool canBroadcast() const
Returns true if the interface supports broadcast communication.
provides a lightweight signal / event system
Definition: signal.hpp:52
util::Signal< NetworkInterface, NetworkAddress > onAddressRemoved
Fires when a network-layer address is removed from the interface.
Represents one network interface attached to the host.
Stores one IP address supported by a network interface.
bool canMulticast() const
Returns true if the interface supports multicast communication.
bool isUp() const
Returns true if the interface is administratively up.
uint32_t getMtu() const
Returns the MTU (maximum transmission unit) of the interface.
interface has a carrier but it cannot send or receive normal user traffic yet
represents an Ethernet hardware address
Definition: ethernet.hpp:52
std::ostream & operator<<(std::ostream &os, AddressScope scope)
ethernet::Address getEthernetAddress() const
Returns the link-layer (Ethernet) address of the interface.
uint32_t getFlags() const
Returns a bitset of platform-specific flags enabled on the interface.
int getIndex() const
Returns an opaque ID that uniquely identifies the interface on the system.
const std::set< NetworkAddress > & getNetworkAddresses() const
Returns a list of all network-layer addresses present on the interface.
bool isLoopback() const
Returns true if the interface is a loopback interface.
util::Signal< NetworkInterface, NetworkAddress > onAddressAdded
Fires when a network-layer address is added to the interface.
