`class` `ExternalLink`

A Kathara external collision domain. It is used to create a collision domain attached to a host interface.

`method` `ExternalLink.init`

__init__(interface: str, vlan: Optional[int] = None) → None

`method` `ExternalLink.get_full_name`

get_full_name() → str

Return the external collision domain full name in the format: |name|.|vlan_tag|.

`method` `ExternalLink.get_name_and_vlan`

get_name_and_vlan() → Tuple[str, Optional[int]]

Return a tuple composed by the name of the attached interface and, if present, the vlan tag.

The interface name is computed appending the interface name to the vlan tag (if present). If the length of interface name + vlan tag is more than 15 chars, the interface name is truncated in order to fit the whole string in 15 chars (due to Linux limitations).

Returns:
