check_virtual_device_compatibility
Description:
[ Version ( since = "0.9.10" ) ]
public bool check_virtual_device_compatibility (Type virtual_type, Type other_type)
Determines if a connection of type virtual_type
can (in the general case) work with connections of type other_type
.
If virtual_type
is NM_TYPE_SETTING_VLAN
, then this checks if other_type
is a valid type for the parent
of a VLAN.
If virtual_type
is a "master" type (eg, NM_TYPE_SETTING_BRIDGE
), then this checks if other_type
is a
valid type for a slave of that master.
Note that even if this returns true
it is not guaranteed that every
connection of type other_type
is
compatible with virtual_type
; it may depend on the exact configuration of the two connections, or on the capabilities of an
underlying device driver.
Parameters:
virtual_type |
a virtual connection type |
other_type |
a connection type to test against |
Returns:
|
