Autodetect the first network interface name that is up

[sebma]

Hi,

Why not autodetect the first network interface name that is up ?

Like this :

network_interface=$(ip -o link show up | gawk -F '\\s|:' '!/\<lo\>/{print$3;exit}')

Hi,

We could detect the devices that are up and connected to the network:

ip -o link show up | grep LOWER_UP | gawk -F '\\s|:' '!/\<lo\>/{print$3;exit}'

But right now, I won't be introducing changes or updates to the tool, as it is unmaintained.

Regards,
