NAME

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.
