@subsection Interface Addresses
The @code{glibtop_ifaddr} structure contains information about a network
interface.
It is declared in @file{<glibtop/interfaces.h>}:
@example
@cartouche
typedef struct _glibtop_ifaddr glibtop_ifaddr;
struct _glibtop_ifaddr
@{
u_int64_t flags,
transport;
u_int8_t addr_len,
address [GLIBTOP_IFADDR_LEN];
u_int64_t subnet,
scope;
@};
@end cartouche
@end example
The contents of this structure depends on the @code{transport} field -
for instance a single network interface can have both an IPv4 address
and several IPv6 ones. This is why functions like @code{glibtop_get_netinfo}
return an array of @code{glibtop_ifaddr} structures.
In general, the fields of the @code{glibtop_ifaddr} structure have the
following meaning:
@table @code
@item transport
The "interface address" from the @code{address} field is only valid for
this transport method (@pxref{Transport Methods}).
@item addr_len
Length of the interface address in the @code{address} field in bytes.
@item address
This is one of the "interface address" for the selected network interface
which is used with the transport method from the @code{transport} field.
@item subnet
The meaning of this field depends on the transport method and is currently
only used for IPv4 (where it contains the current subnet mask) and for IPv6
(where it contains the address length in bits).
@item scope
This is only used for IPv6 and contains the address scope
(@pxref{Address Scope}).

@subsubsection Transport Methods
The following transport methods are defined in @file{<glibtop/interfaces.h>}:
@example
@cartouche
enum _glibtop_transport @{
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_DEFAULT = 0,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_IPV4 = 1 << 0,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_IPV6 = 1 << 1,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_IPX = 1 << 2,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_X25 = 1 << 3,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_DECNET = 1 << 4,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_APPLETALK = 1 << 5,
GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_NETBEUI = 1 << 6,
@};
@end cartouche
@end example
There is a @code{GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_ALL} constant which can be used
when you want information about all possible transport methods:
@example
@cartouche
#define GLIBTOP_TRANSPORT_ALL GLIBTOP_UNLIMITED
@end cartouche
@end example
@node Interface Flags, , Transport Methods, Network Interfaces
@subsubsection Interface Flags
This is defined in @file{<glibtop/interfaces.h>}:
@example
@cartouche
enum _glibtop_interface_flags @{
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_UP = 1,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_BROADCAST,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_DEBUG,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_LOOPBACK,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_POINTOPOINT,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_RUNNING,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_NOARP,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_PROMISC,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_ALLMULTI,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_OACTIVE,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_SIMPLEX,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_LINK0,

GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_LINK2,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_ALTPHYS,
GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_MULTICAST
@};
@end cartouche
@end example
They are used as a bit mask like this:
@example
u_int64_t if_flags;
if_flags = (1L << GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_UP) | (1L << GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_RUNNING);
@end example
@node Address Scope, , Network Interfaces, Enums and Typedefs
@subsection Address Scope
This is defined in @file{<glibtop/interfaces.h>} for the IPv6 address scope:
@example
@cartouche
enum _glibtop_ipv6_scope @{
GLIBTOP_IPV6_SCOPE_GLOBAL = 0,
GLIBTOP_IPV6_SCOPE_LOOPBACK = 1 << 1,
GLIBTOP_IPV6_SCOPE_LINKLOCAL = 1 << 2,
GLIBTOP_IPV6_SCOPE_SITELOCAL = 1 << 3,
GLIBTOP_IPV6_SCOPE_COMPATv4 = 1 << 4,
