network (Ethernet interfaces)

The network (Ethernet interfaces) object contains configuration information for individual Ethernet interfaces. You can use the GetConfig and GetNetworkConfig methods to obtain this information for a storage node.

Object members

This object contains the following members:

Name	Description	Type
bond-master	Specifies which bonded interface this physical interface join as a bond slave.	string
family	Address family that the interface is configured to use. Currently "inet" for IPv4 is supported.	string
macAddress	The actual MAC address assigned to the interface and observed by the network.	string
macAddressPermanent	The immutable MAC address assigned by the manufacturer to the interface.	string
method	The method used to configure the interface. Possible values: loopback: Used to define the IPv4 loopback interface. manual: Used to define interfaces that are not configured automatically. dhcp: Can be used to obtain an IP address via DHCP. static: Used to define Ethernet interfaces with statically allocated IPv4 addresses.	string
status	The state of the interface. Possible values: Down: The interface is inactive. Up: The interface is ready, but has no link. UpAndRunning: The interface is ready and a link is established.	string
upAndRunning	(boolean) Indicates if the interface is ready and has a link.	boolean
