The link status ``unknown`` is often visible on uninitialized wireguard interfaces, once traffic was successfully sent and received it will change to state ``up``. However, it is not recommended to assume that wireguard is correctly configured by the interface status, since multiple peers can be configured on a single interface and if only 1 out of 10 is working, the interface status will shown as ``up``. + + +remove_interface() +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Removes an interface from the system, given as parameter of the objects instance. + +Interface macaddress +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Sets the mac address on a network interface. + +.. code-block:: sh + + interface_instance.linkstate = 'up' + +get_macaddr() +~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Returns the mac address of a network interface. + +Interface MTU +^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Sets the MTU on a network interface. + +.. code-block:: sh + + interface_instance.mtu = 9000 + + +get_mtu(self) +~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Returns the MTU of a network interface. + + +add_ipv4_addr(ipaddr=[]): +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Adds IPv4 addresses given as parameter. + +.. code-block:: sh + + #!/usr/bin/python3 + + from vyos.interfaceconfig import Interface + + ips = ['10.100.100.1/24', '10.100.100.2/24', '10.100.100.3/24'] + interface_instance = Interface("eth2") + interface_instance.add_ipv4_addr(ips) + +.. code-block:: sh + + ip -4 -br addr sh dev eth2 + eth2 UP 10.100.100.1/24 10.100.100.2/24 10.100.100.3/24 + + +del_ipv4_addr(ipaddr=[]) +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Removes the IPs given in the parameter ``ipaddr``. + +def get_ipv4_addr() +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Returns a list of all IPv4 addresses of an interface. + + +.. code-block:: sh + + #!/usr/bin/python3 + + from vyos.interfaceconfig import Interface + + interface_instance = Interface("eth2") + ips = interface_instance.get_ipv4_addr() + print(ips) + +.. code-block:: sh + + ['10.100.100.1', '10.100.100.2', '10.100.100.3'] + + +set_dhcpv4() +^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Starts dhclient and sends DHCPREQUEST messages on the interface. + +del_dhcpv4() +^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Stops dhclient on the interface. + +get_dhcpv4() +^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Returns the pid of the dhclient process, if none is runing `False` is being returned and the message ``no dhcp client running on interface <interface>`` displayed on stdout. + +add_ipv6_addr(ipaddr=[]) +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Adds IPv6 addresses given as parameter. + +.. code-block:: sh + + #!/usr/bin/python3 + + from vyos.interfaceconfig import Interface + + ips = ['2001:db8:dead::1/64', '2001:db8:beaf::1/64', '2001:db8:cafe::1/64'] + interface_instance = Interface("eth2") + interface_instance.add_ipv6_addr(ips) + +.. code-block:: sh + + ip -6 -br addr sh dev eth2 + eth2 UP 2001:db8:cafe::1/64 2001:db8:beaf::1/64 2001:db8:dead::1/64 fe80::a00:27ff:fe70:9ca3/64 + +del_ipv6_addr(ipaddr=[]) +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Removes the IPv6 addresses given via the paramater ``ipaddr``. + +get_ipv6_addr() +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Returns all IPv6 addresse set on the interface. + +.. code-block:: sh + + #!/usr/bin/python3 + + from vyos.interfaceconfig import Interface + + interface_instance = Interface("eth2") + ips = interface_instance.get_ipv6_addr() + print(ips) + +.. code-block:: sh + + ['2001:db8:cafe::1', '2001:db8:beaf::1', '2001:db8:dead::1', 'fe80::a00:27ff:fe70:9ca3'] + + +set_dhcpv6() +^^^^^^^^^^^^ +It enables stateful IPv6 deployments on the given interface.
