Class: Helper pyVC/Helpers/Interface.py

This object defines a Interface to run on the real machine

This object can be instantiated as: interface = Helper(realmachine, networks, addrs) realmachine = Machine networks = [Network, ...] addrs is a comma separated string of IP addresses

  _get_addrs  
_get_addrs ( self )

Returns a list of IP addresses to be assigned to the network interface.

  start  
start ( self )

Brings up the network interface on the real Machine.

If multiple addresses are supplied to the constructor, this function will create Linux IP aliases starting with :0, skipping any used interfaces.

This method also registers self.stop() as an atexit function, to ensure proper cleanup of processes and files

interface.start()

  stop  
stop ( self )

Brings down the network interface on the real Machine.

This method will perform a no-op if the interface is already down or if self.status != started.

interface.stop()
