This is a list of all Puppet network interfaces. Each interface is implemented in the form of a client and a handler; the handler is loaded on the server, and the client knows how to call the handler's methods appropriately.
Most handlers are meant to be started on the server, usually within
puppetmasterd, and the clients are mostly started on the client,
usually within puppetd.
You can find the server-side handler for each interface at
puppet/network/handler/<name>.rb and the client class at
puppet/network/client/<name>.rb.
