## Description

## Functions

### nm_device_macvlan_get_parent ()

    NMDevice *
    nm_device_macvlan_get_parent (NMDeviceMacvlan *device);

#### Parameters

device | a NMDeviceMacvlan |

#### Returns

the device's parent device.

[transfer none]

Since: 1.2

### nm_device_macvlan_get_mode ()

    const char *
    nm_device_macvlan_get_mode (NMDeviceMacvlan *device);

Gets the MACVLAN mode of the device.

#### Parameters

device | a NMDeviceMacvlan |

#### Returns

the MACVLAN mode. This is the internal string used by the device, and must not be modified.

Since: 1.2

### nm_device_macvlan_get_no_promisc ()

    gboolean
    nm_device_macvlan_get_no_promisc (NMDeviceMacvlan *device);

Gets the no-promiscuous flag of the device.

#### Parameters

device | a NMDeviceMacvlan |

#### Returns

the no-promiscuous flag of the device.

Since: 1.2

### nm_device_macvlan_get_tap ()

    gboolean
    nm_device_macvlan_get_tap (NMDeviceMacvlan *device);

Gets the device type (MACVLAN or MACVTAP).

#### Parameters

device | a NMDeviceMacvlan |

#### Returns

`TRUE` if the device is a MACVTAP, `FALSE` if it is a MACVLAN.

Since: 1.2

### nm_device_macvlan_get_hw_address ()

    const char *
    nm_device_macvlan_get_hw_address (NMDeviceMacvlan *device);

Gets the hardware (MAC) address of the NMDeviceMacvlan

#### Parameters

device | a NMDeviceMacvlan |

#### Returns

the hardware address. This is the internal string used by the device, and must not be modified.

Since: 1.2
