I'm actually interested in the state information and have already
added NE_LIF_UP/DOWN events plus net_getlifflags() to get the current
state of a lif. In addition to these I've added NE_SET_ZONE for when a
lif gets added to a zone and a corresponding net_getlifzone(). I know
we've talked about this informally before but I also realise you're
trying to get the initial cut putback so this work would be done after
initial putback. My choice of event names mirrors the current
net_getlif* terminology but of course can be easily changed.
Is it at all necessary to add an event pair for creation/deletion of
logical interfaces or is up/down enough here if they imply the former?
Do you care about what flags are set (or unset) on a logical interface,
or if it has a name, while it is down?
I'm just wondering if the events you've described give you enough of
what you want/need.
Darren
