NAME

Net::Interface - Perl extension to access network interfaces

SYNOPSIS

use Net::Interface;

$if = Net::Interface->new ("lo0");
$if->mtu (1024);

foreach (Net::Interface->interfaces ()) {print $_->name;}

DESCRIPTION

Net::Interface is designed to make the use of ifconfig(1) and friends unnecessary from within Perl. It provides methods to get at set all the attributes of an interface, and even create new logical or physical interfaces (if your O/S supports it).
