NAME

LinkLocal::IPv4::Interface - Moose-based network interface object wrapper

SYNOPSIS

  use LinkLocal::IPv4::Interface;
  
  my $if = LinkLocal::IPv4::Interface->new('eth0');
  $if->get_next_address(); 

DESCRIPTION

Link-Local addresses provide a means for network attached devices to participate in unmanaged IP networks. Based upon IETF standard RFC 3927, LinkLocal::IPv4::Interface provides a simple and lightweight framework for dynamic configuration of network interfaces with IPv4 Link-Local addresses.
