Review: python-netifaces2 0.0.22-1

Package Information

Descriptionportable network interface information

This library reports information about network interfaces known to the operating system. It can list interface names and return per-interface address data, including link-layer, IPv4, and IPv6 addresses where the system provides them.

It also exposes routing gateway information and the default gateway through a netifaces-compatible API. On Linux, gateway data is obtained from the kernel routing table as exposed through procfs or through the ip command when needed.

The data comes from the host networking stack, network interfaces, and routing tables. Results reflect the addresses and routes configured on the system, such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi interface addresses, netmasks, broadcast addresses, and gateway entries.
