Linux network tasks can now be easily configured with an innovative approach. This software simplifies network configuration and makes the process efficient.
Firstly, /etc/net offers configuration profiles, interface name management, removable devices, a full iproute2 command set, interface dependencies resolution, and a QoS configuration framework. Additionally, it now has firewall support, which is a brand new addition to the software.
When it comes to interface types, /etc/net also excels. It caters for Ethernet, WiFi (WEP), IPv4/IPv6 tunnels, PSK IPSec tunnels, VLAN, PLIP, Ethernet bonding and bridging, traffic equalizer, usbnet, and PPP (PPtP, PPPoE). And the beauty of the software lies in its modular design, which means that support for new interface types can be added without the need for any overall design changes.
The software comprises of two main components - core scripts (stable) and a GUI configurator (development). Both components are licensed under the GPL, ensuring they can be used and modified without restrictions. With its range of features and modular design, /etc/net is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a modern take on Linux network configuration.
