netshow-linux
=============

Netshow-linux is a Provider for
`Netshow <http://github.com/CumulusNetworks/netshow-core>`__, a Network
Abstraction Software. It is optimized to collect core networking data
from Linux devices that contain many interfaces.

Netshow-linux has 2 main modules.

netshowlib
----------

This module contains other modules that are responsible for retrieving
network information from the Linux kernel and associated components.
This information is abstracted in mainly into interface types, like
bonds, bridges, bond members and so on.

netshow
-------

Netshow modules are responsible for printing the network information
collected from the ``netshowlib`` modules. For example, the
``print_iface`` netshow module takes interface information retrieved by
``netshowlib`` modules and abstracted in python objects and prints the
information in a human readable form.
