Module for gathering and managing network information
Return a dict containing information on all of the running TCP connections
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.active_tcp
Return the arp table from the minion
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.arp
Performs a DNS lookup with dig
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.dig archlinux.org
Get hostname
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.get_hostname
Return the hardware address (a.k.a. MAC address) for a given interface
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.hw_addr eth0
Return the hardware address (a.k.a. MAC address) for a given interface
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.hw_addr eth0
Returns True if host is within specified subnet, otherwise False.
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.in_subnet 10.0.0.0/16
Return a dictionary of information about all the interfaces on the minion
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.interfaces
Returns a list of IPv4 addresses assigned to the host. 127.0.0.1 is ignored, unless 'include_loopback=True' is indicated. If 'interface' is provided, then only IP addresses from that interface will be returned. Providing a CIDR via 'cidr="10.0.0.0/8"' will return only the addresses which are within that subnet.
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.ip_addrs
Returns a list of IPv6 addresses assigned to the host. ::1 is ignored, unless 'include_loopback=True' is indicated. If 'interface' is provided, then only IP addresses from that interface will be returned.
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.ip_addrs6
Returns a list of IPv4 addresses assigned to the host. 127.0.0.1 is ignored, unless 'include_loopback=True' is indicated. If 'interface' is provided, then only IP addresses from that interface will be returned. Providing a CIDR via 'cidr="10.0.0.0/8"' will return only the addresses which are within that subnet.
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.ip_addrs
Returns a list of IPv6 addresses assigned to the host. ::1 is ignored, unless 'include_loopback=True' is indicated. If 'interface' is provided, then only IP addresses from that interface will be returned.
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.ip_addrs6
Modify hostname
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.mod_hostname master.saltstack.com
Return information on open ports and states
Note
On BSD minions, the output contains PID info (where available) for each netstat entry, fetched from sockstat/fstat output.
Changed in version 2014.1.4: Added support for OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and NetBSD
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.netstat
Performs a ping to a host
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.ping archlinux.org
Returns a list of subnets to which the host belongs
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.subnets
Performs a traceroute to a 3rd party host
CLI Example:
salt '*' network.traceroute archlinux.org
