Interface INetworkDeviceService

All Known Subinterfaces:

IEthernetDeviceService, IWifiDeviceService

public interface INetworkDeviceService

Manages Network device configurations. This is an interface that is not directly implemented by any bundles. Instead this is extended by other interfaces such as the @IEthernetDeviceService and the @IWifiDeviceService which are then in turn implemented. Copyright � 2009 Eurotech Inc. All rights reserved.
