NAME

Sys::Virt::NWFilter - Represent & manage a libvirt virtual network

DESCRIPTION

Top

The Sys::Virt::NWFilter module represents a virtual network managed by the virtual machine monitor.

METHODS

Top

my $uuid = $filter->get_uuid()

Returns a 16 byte long string containing the raw globally unique identifier (UUID) for the network.

my $uuid = $filter->get_uuid_string()

Returns a printable string representation of the raw UUID, in the format 'XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX'.

my $name = $filter->get_name()

Returns a string with a locally unique name of the network

my $xml = $filter->get_xml_description()

Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the network's configuration

$filter->undefine()

Remove the configuration associated with a network previously defined with the define_network method in Sys::Virt. If the network is running, you probably want to use the shutdown or destroy methods instead.
