// Package netlink provides a simple library for netlink. Netlink is
// the interface a user-space program in linux uses to communicate with
// the kernel. It can be used to add and remove interfaces, set up ip
// addresses and routes, and confiugre ipsec. Netlink communication
// requires elevated privileges, so in most cases this code needs to
// be run as root. The low level primitives for netlink are contained
// in the nl subpackage. This package attempts to provide a high-level
// interface that is loosly modeled on the iproute2 cli.
package netlink
import (
"errors"
"net"
)
var (
// ErrNotImplemented is returned when a requested feature is not implemented.
ErrNotImplemented = errors.New("not implemented")
)
// ParseIPNet parses a string in ip/net format and returns a net.IPNet.
// This is valuable because addresses in netlink are often IPNets and
// ParseCIDR returns an IPNet with the IP part set to the base IP of the
// range.
