=head1 DESCRIPTION

IO::Interface adds methods to IO::Socket objects that allows them to
be used to retrieve and change information about the network
interfaces on your system.  In addition to the object-oriented access
methods, you can use a function-oriented style.

THIS API IS DEPRECATED. Please see L<IO::Interface::Simple> for the
preferred way to get and set interface configuration information.

=head2 Creating a Socket to Access Interface Information

You must create a socket before you can access interface
information. The socket does not have to be connected to a remote
site, or even used for communication.  The simplest procedure is to
create a UDP protocol socket:

  my $s = IO::Socket::INET->new(Proto => 'udp');

The various IO::Interface functions will now be available as methods
on this socket.

=head2 Methods

=over 4

=item @iflist = $s->if_list

The if_list() method will return a list of active interface names, for
example "eth0" or "tu0".  If no interfaces are configured and running,
returns an empty list.

=item $addr = $s->if_addr($ifname [,$newaddr])

if_addr() gets or sets the interface address.  Call with the interface
name to retrieve the address (in dotted decimal format).  Call with a
new address to set the interface.  In the latter case, the routine
will return a true value if the operation was successful.

  my $oldaddr = $s->if_addr('eth0');
  $s->if_addr('eth0','192.168.8.10') || die "couldn't set address: $!";

Special case: the address of the pseudo-device "any" will return the
IP address "0.0.0.0", which corresponds to the INADDR_ANY constant.

=item $broadcast = $s->if_broadcast($ifname [,$newbroadcast]

Get or set the interface broadcast address.  If the interface does not
have a broadcast address, returns undef.

=item $mask = $s->if_netmask($ifname [,$newmask])

Get or set the interface netmask.

=item $dstaddr = $s->if_dstaddr($ifname [,$newdest])

Get or set the destination address for point-to-point interfaces.

=item $hwaddr = $s->if_hwaddr($ifname [,$newhwaddr])

Get or set the hardware address for the interface. Currently only
ethernet addresses in the form "00:60:2D:2D:51:70" are accepted.

=item $flags = $s->if_flags($ifname [,$newflags])

Get or set the flags for the interface.  The flags are a bitmask
formed from a series of constants.  See L<Exportable constants> below.

=item $ifname = $s->addr_to_interface($ifaddr)

Given an interface address in dotted form, returns the name of the
interface associated with it.  Special case: the INADDR_ANY address,
0.0.0.0 will return a pseudo-interface name of "any".

=back

=head2 EXPORT

IO::Interface exports nothing by default.  However, you can import the
following symbol groups into your namespace:

  :functions   Function-oriented interface (see below)
  :flags       Flag constants (see below)
  :all         All of the above

=head2 Function-Oriented Interface

By importing the ":functions" set, you can access IO::Interface in a
function-oriented manner.  This imports all the methods described
above into your namespace.  Example:

  use IO::Socket;
  use IO::Interface ':functions';

  my $sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(Proto=>'udp');
  my @interfaces = if_list($sock);
  print "address = ",if_addr($sock,$interfaces[0]);

=head2 Exportable constants

The ":flags" constant imports the following constants for use with the
flags returned by if_flags():

  IFF_ALLMULTI
  IFF_AUTOMEDIA
  IFF_BROADCAST
  IFF_DEBUG
  IFF_LOOPBACK
  IFF_MASTER
  IFF_MULTICAST
  IFF_NOARP
  IFF_NOTRAILERS
  IFF_POINTOPOINT
  IFF_PORTSEL
  IFF_PROMISC
  IFF_RUNNING
  IFF_SLAVE
  IFF_UP

This example determines whether interface 'tu0' supports multicasting:

  use IO::Socket;
  use IO::Interface ':flags';
  my $sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(Proto=>'udp');
  print "can multicast!\n" if $sock->if_flags & IFF_MULTICAST.
