net

net shows the network interfaces visible to PHP, including state, IPv4/IPv6 addresses, masks, broadcast addresses and peer information when the platform exposes them.

Overview

Use net for Server network interfaces and addresses. Common operations stay short; specialized forms add detail only when needed, so repeated work remains easy to understand, repeat and place in lil-terminal scripts.

A server interface is not necessarily its public address

Shared hosting commonly sits behind NAT, proxies or provider networking, so net may show private or internal interfaces. Compare it with ip server, DNS and remote checks when you need to understand how the host is actually exposed.

Syntax

lil-terminal
net [interface] [-4|-6|-l]

Install and manage

Install the current compatible version. Choose Base for the complete feature set or Minimum for the reduced package; use upgrade to update a module that is already installed.

Base and Minimum are two packages of the same current module release, not separate command versions.

Base package

Install the complete package with local command reference and every published mode.

install net
Minimum package

Install the reduced package. Local reference is omitted; help <cmd> -i opens the current server reference.

install net -m
Exact public version

Install exactly this published version.

install net -v 1.1.5
Check or update

Ask upgrade to check compatibility and replace the installed block only when needed.

upgrade net
Remove module

Remove the extension block while leaving the core and unrelated modules intact.

install net -u
