Sys::Virt::Interface - Represent & manage a libvirt host network interface
DESCRIPTION
The "Sys::Virt::Interface" module represents a host network interface allowing configuration of IP addresses, bonding, vlans and bridges.
METHODS
my $name = $iface->get_name()
Returns a string with a locally unique name of the network
$iface->is_active()
Returns a true value if the interface is currently running
my $name = $iface->get_mac()
Returns a string with the hardware MAC address of the interface
my $xml = $iface->get_xml_description()
Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the network's configuration
$iface->create()
Start a network whose configuration was previously defined using the "define_network" method in Sys::Virt.
$iface->undefine()
Remove the configuration associated with a network previously defined with the "define_network" method in Sys::Virt. If the network is
running, you probably want to use the "shutdown" or "destroy" methods instead.
$iface->destroy()
Immediately terminate the machine, and remove it from the virtual machine monitor. The $iface handle is invalid after this call
completes and should not be used again.
CONSTANTS
XML CONSTANTS
The following constants are used when querying XML
Sys::Virt::Interface::XML_INACTIVE
Request the inactive XML, instead of the current possibly live config.
