  • link devices
  • veth devices
  • addresses
  • bridging
  • routing
  • bonding
  • net namespaces
  • netfilter tables
  • netfilter chains
  • netfilter rules
  • MACVLAN
  • VLAN
  • VXLAN

Requirements

Ensure libnl-route, libnl, libnftnl and libmnl shared objects are present on your system. Most distros already ship with those libraries, but in any case you can fetch them with the following command if you're on Ubuntu/Debian:

$ sudo apt-get install libnl-route-3-200 libnl-3-200 libnftnl4 libmnl0

Also, make sure to create symbolic links for above libraries to match the name of the shared object expected by ffi:

$ sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnl-3.so.200 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnl-3.so
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnl-route-3.so.200 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnl-route-3.so
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnftnl.so.4 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnftnl.so
$ sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmnl.so.0 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmnl.so
