Variables

• MTU

  • Description: dict defining a non default MTU size for each interface in the system. dict keys can be an interface name, an interface type (e.g. eth, em), DEFAULT or BOOT.

Functions

• set_interface_defaults

  • Arguments:

    • a dict with defaults (mandatory ‘netmask’ and ‘gateway’, optional ‘broadcast’)

• boot_nic
• copy_network_params

• ip_in_network

  • Arguments:

    • ipv4 address to test
    • network address (is always recomputed using subnet mask)
    • subnet mask

• get_subnet_params

  • Arguments:

    • subnet list, a list of dict where the keys are all the properties supported by structure_interface + ‘subnet’ which is the subnet number (result of applying the mask to the address. subnet key is mandatory, ‘netmask` defaults to 255.255.255.0.
    • ip address to test

• subnet_prefix_to_mask

  • Arguments:

    • prefix

• subnet_mask_to_prefix

  • Arguments:

    • netmask
