139 other modules to handle their own interface lists with special information
140 by providing a mechanism to register to events that change the interface list
142 The basic data structure is the interface structure:
172 This RFC states, that an interface indexes may not be reused.
175 is a synthetic interface type and the system creates the interface
179 then these interfaces must have different interface indexes, because in fact
181 If, on the other hand, there is a hardware interface
183 and this interface disappears, because its driver is unloaded and appears
184 again, because the driver is loaded again, the interface index must stay
189 An interface type can be declared dynamic by calling the function
191 with the name if the interface type (for example
193 For real interfaces, the module keeps the mapping between the interface name
196 in a special list, if the interface is unloaded.
200 is generated each time the interface comes into existence.
201 This means, that the interface index as seen by SNMP is not the same index
207 the system's interface index is
212 causes the entire interface list to be re-created.
214 The interface list can be traversed with the functions
218 Be sure not to change the interface list while traversing the list with
221 There are three functions to find an interface by name or index.
223 finds an interface by searching for an SNMP
226 finds an interface by searching for a system interface index and
228 finds an interface by looking for an interface name.
231 if the interface cannot be found.
235 causes the interface MIB to be refreshed from the kernel.
239 can be used to change the interface administrative state to up
241 .Ss INTERFACE EVENTS
243 created in the interface list.
253 A module can also register to events on a specific interface.
258 to be called with the interface pointer, a notification code and
264 The interface is destroyed.
267 This mechanism can be used to implement interface type specific MIB parts
273 Any notification registration is removed automatically when the interface
275 .Em Note that only one module can register to any given interface .
276 .Ss INTERFACE ADDRESSES
279 module handles a table of interface IP-addresses.
293 The (ordered) list of IP-addresses on a given interface can be traversed by
299 .Ss INTERFACE RECEIVE ADDRESSES
300 The internet MIB-2 contains a table of interface receive addresses.
320 is based on a list of known interface types.
322 by modules implementing interface type specific MIBs.
333 .Ss INTERFACE STACK TABLE
336 module maintains also the interface stack table.
338 there is no system supported generic way of getting this information, interface
