Network routes, IP addresses, Link parameters, Neighbor setups, Queueing disciplines, Traffic classes and Packet classifiers may all be controlled. It is based on netlink messages. . A convenient, high-level API wrapper is available using package rtnl (https://godoc.org/github.com/jsimonetti/rtnetlink/rtnl). . The base rtnetlink library explicitly only exposes a limited low-level API to rtnetlink. It is not the intention (nor wish) to create an iproute2 replacement.
