Struct Interface 

pub struct Interface { /* private fields */ }

Available on crate feature std only.

A network interface of the local host, as enumerated by interfaces.

Implementations

impl Interface

pub fn name(&self) -> &str

OS name of the interface: the kernel name on unix platforms (eth0, en0), the adapter’s friendly name on windows (Ethernet 1).

pub fn index(&self) -> Option<u32>

OS interface index, when known.

On windows this is the IPv4 interface index, falling back to the IPv6 one — the two are distinct numbering spaces there. For the zone of a scoped IPv6 address use InterfaceAddress::scope_id instead.

pub fn flags(&self) -> InterfaceFlags

Status and capability flags of this interface.

pub fn is_up(&self) -> bool

Whether the interface is up, administratively and operationally.

pub fn hardware_address(&self) -> Option<&HardwareAddress>

Link-layer (MAC) address, when one is reported.

pub fn description(&self) -> Option<&str>

Human-readable adapter description. Only reported on windows.

pub fn addresses(&self) -> &[InterfaceAddress]

The IP addresses assigned to this interface, in OS order.

pub fn device_name(&self) -> Option<DeviceName>

Available on Android or Fuchsia or Linux only.

This interface’s name as a DeviceName, usable with SocketOptions::device to bind a socket to it.

None when the kernel name does not pass DeviceName validation.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Interface

fn clone(&self) -> Interface

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Interface

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
