ifstatus interface

ifstatus is an OpenWRT utility that displays network interface status in JSON format. It queries the netifd (network interface daemon) for detailed information about interface configuration and state.
The output includes IP addresses, DNS servers, connection state, protocol type, and other interface-specific information in a machine-readable format suitable for scripts and automation.

interface

Name of the network interface to query

Only available on OpenWRT/LEDE systems. Interface names correspond to netifd logical interfaces, not kernel device names. Requires netifd to be running.

ifstatus is part of netifd, the OpenWRT network interface daemon introduced in OpenWRT 12.09 (Attitude Adjustment). It replaced the older hotplug-based network configuration system with a more robust daemon-based approach.
