.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ng_iface
|
|
.Nd interface netgraph node type
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <netgraph/ng_iface.h>
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
An
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
node is both a netgraph node and a system networking interface. When an
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
node is created, a new interface appears which is accessible via
|
|
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
|
|
.Nm Iface
|
|
node interfaces are named
|
|
.Dv ng0 ,
|
|
.Dv ng1 ,
|
|
etc.
|
|
When a node is shutdown, the corresponding interface is removed
|
|
and the interface name becomes available for reuse by future
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
nodes; new nodes always take the first unused interface.
|
|
The node itself is assigned the same name as its interface, unless the name
|
|
already exists, in which case the node remains unnamed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
An
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
node has a single hook corresponding to each supported protocol.
|
|
Packets transmitted via the interface flow out the corresponding
|
|
protocol-specific hook.
|
|
Similarly, packets received on a hook appear on the interface as
|
|
packets received into the corresponding protocol stack.
|
|
The currently supported protocols are IP, IPv6, AppleTalk, IPX, ATM,
|
|
NATM, and NS.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
An
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
node be configured as a point-to-point interface or a broadcast interface.
|
|
The configuration can only be changed when the interface is down.
|
|
The default mode is point-to-point.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm Iface
|
|
nodes support the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF).
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports the following hooks:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foobar
|
|
.It Dv inet
|
|
Transmission and reception of IP packets.
|
|
.It Dv inet6
|
|
Transmission and reception of IPv6 packets.
|
|
.It Dv atalk
|
|
Transmission and reception of AppleTalk packets.
|
|
.It Dv ipx
|
|
Transmission and reception of IPX packets.
|
|
.It Dv atm
|
|
Transmission and reception of ATM packets.
|
|
.It Dv natm
|
|
Transmission and reception of NATM packets.
|
|
.It Dv ns
|
|
Transmission and reception of NS packets.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foo
|
|
.It Dv NGM_IFACE_GET_IFNAME
|
|
Returns the name of the interface corresponding to this node in a
|
|
.Dv "struct ng_iface_ifname" :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset 4n
|
|
struct ng_iface_ifname {
|
|
char ngif_name[NG_IFACE_IFACE_NAME_MAX + 1];
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Dv NGM_IFACE_POINT2POINT
|
|
Set the interface to point-to-point mode.
|
|
The interface must not currently be up.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_IFACE_BROADCAST
|
|
Set the interface to broadcast mode.
|
|
The interface must not currently be up.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_CISCO_GET_IPADDR
|
|
This message is defined by the
|
|
.Xr ng_cisco 4
|
|
node type; see
|
|
.Xr ng_cisco 4
|
|
for a description.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node shuts down upon receipt of a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message. The associated interface is removed and becomes available
|
|
for use by future
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
nodes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Unlike most other node types, an
|
|
.Nm iface
|
|
node does
|
|
.Em not
|
|
go away when all hooks have been disconnected; rather, and explicit
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message is required.
