# interface
|
|
|
|
Use the `interface` Chef InSpec audit resource to test basic network adapter properties, such as name, status, IP addresses, and link speed (in MB/sec).
|
|
|
|
* On Linux platforms, `/sys/class/net/#{iface}` is used as source
|
|
* On the Windows platform, the `Get-NetAdapter` cmdlet is used as source
|
|
* On BSD and MacOS platforms, the `ifconfig` command is used as source. Link speed may not be available.

## Availability
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
This resource is distributed along with Chef InSpec itself. You can use it automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Version
|
|
|
|
This resource first became available in v1.0.0 of Chef InSpec.
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
An `interface` resource block declares network interface properties to be tested:
|
|
|
|
describe interface('eth0') do
|
|
it { should be_up }
|
|
its('speed') { should eq 1000 }
|
|
its('name') { should eq eth0 }
|
|
its('ipv4_addresses') { should include '10.0.0.5' }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
## Properties
|
|
|
|
`ipv4_address`, `ipv4_addresses`, `ipv4_addresses_netmask`, `ipv4_cidrs`, `ipv6_addresses`, `ipv6_cidrs`, `name`, `speed`
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Resource Property Examples
|
|
|
|
### ipv4_address
|
|
|
|
Returns the first `ipv4_addresses` entry as a String. Note: this property is incompatible with ServerSpec, which returns the value including the CIDR range, such as '10.0.0.5/32'.
|
|
|
|
its('ipv4_address') { should eq '10.0.0.5' }
|
|
|
|
### ipv4_addresses
|
|
|
|
The `ipv4_addresses` property returns an Array of IPv4 addresses as Strings. You may then test if the specified address exists on the named network interface:
|
|
|
|
its('ipv4_addresses') { should include '127.0.0.1' }
|
|
|
|
### ipv4\_addresses\_netmask
|
|
|
|
The `ipv4_addresses_netmask` property returns an Array of Strings with each containing the IPv4 address, a slash, and the netmask. You may then test if the specified address and netmask exists on the named network interface:
|
|
|
|
its('ipv4_addresses_netmask') { should include '127.0.0.1/255.0.0.0' }
|
|
|
|
### ipv6_address
|
|
|
|
Returns the first `ipv6_address` entry. Note: this property is incompatible with ServerSpec, which returns the value including the CIDR range.
|
|
|
|
its('ipv6_address') { should eq '2089:98b::faeb' }
|
|
|
|
### ipv6_addresses
|
|
|
|
The `ipv6_addresses` property returns an Array of Strings and tests if the specified address exists on the named network interface:
|
|
|
|
its('ipv6_addresses') { should include '::1' }
|
|
|
|
### ipv4_cidrs
|
|
|
|
The `ipv4_cidrs` property returns an Array of Strings and tests if the specified address and netmask combination exists on the named network interface:
|
|
|
|
its('ipv4_cidrs') { should include '127.0.0.1/8' }
|
|
|
|
### ipv6_cidrs
|
|
|
|
The `ipv6_cidrs` property returns an Array of Strings and tests if the specified address and netmask combination exists on the named network interface:
|
|
|
|
its('ipv6_cidrs') { should include '::1/128' }
|
|
|
|
### name
|
|
|
|
The `name` property returns the name of the interface:
|
|
|
|
its('name') { should eq 'eth0' }
|
|
|
|
### speed
|
|
|
|
The `speed` property tests the speed of the network interface, in MB/sec. Note: On BSD and MacOS platforms, this value may be nil, because it difficult to obtain reliably.
|
|
|
|
its('speed') { should eq 1000 }
|

|
|
|
|
### be_up
|
|
|
|
The `be_up` matcher tests if the network interface is available:
|
|
|
|
it { should be_up }
|
|
|
|
### exist
|
|
|
|
The `exist` matcher tests if the network interface exists:
|
|
|
|
it { should exist }
|
|
|
|
### have\_an\_ipv4\_address
|
|
|
|
The `have_an_ipv4_address` matcher tests if the network interface has any IPv4 addresses assigned:
|
|
|
|
it { should have_an_ipv4_address }
|
|
|
|
### have\_an\_ipv6\_address
|
|
|
|
The `have_an_ipv6_address` matcher tests if the network interface has any IPv6 addresses assigned:
|
|
|
|
it { should have_an_ipv6_address }
|
