Netns management overview
=========================

Pyroute2 provides basic namespaces management support.
Here's a quick overview of typical netns tasks and
related pyroute2 tools.

Move an interface to a namespace
--------------------------------

Though this task is managed not via `netns` module, it
should be mentioned here as well. To move an interface
to a netns, one should provide IFLA_NET_NS_FD nla in
a set link RTNL request. The nla is an open FD number,
that refers to already created netns. The pyroute2
library provides also a possibility to specify not a
FD number, but a netns name as a string. In that case
the library will try to lookup the corresponding netns
in the standard location.

Create veth and move the peer to a netns with IPRoute::

from pyroute2 import IPRoute
    ipr = IPRoute()
    ipr.link('add', ifname='v0p0', kind='veth', peer='v0p1')
    idx = ipr.link_lookup(ifname='v0p1')[0]
    ipr.link('set', index=idx, net_ns_fd='netns_name')

Create veth and move the peer to a netns with IPDB::

from pyroute2 import IPDB
    ipdb = IPDB()
    ipdb.create(ifname='v0p0', kind='veth', peer='v0p1').commit()
    with ipdb.interfaces.v0p1 as i:
        i.net_ns_fd = 'netns_name'

Manage interfaces within a netns
--------------------------------

This task can be done with `NetNS` objects. A `NetNS` object
spawns a child and runs it within a netns, providing the same
API as `IPRoute` does::

from pyroute2 import NetNS
    ns = NetNS('netns_name')
    # do some stuff within the netns
    ns.close()

One can even start `IPDB` on the top of `NetNS`::

from pyroute2 import NetNS
    from pyroute2 import IPDB
    ipdb = IPDB(nl=NetNS('netns_name'))
    # do some stuff within the netns
    ipdb.release()

Spawn a process within a netns
------------------------------

For that purpose one can use `NSPopen` API. It works just
as normal `Popen`, but starts a process within a netns.

List, set, create and remove netns
----------------------------------

These functions are described below. To use them, import
`netns` module::

from pyroute2 import netns
    netns.listnetns()

Please be aware, that in order to run system calls the
library uses `ctypes` module. It can fail on platforms
where SELinux is enforced. If the Python interpreter,
loading this module, dumps the core, one can check the
SELinux state with `getenforce` command.
