# ifnet_init_params

## Declaration

```occ
struct ifnet_init_params {
    ...
};
```

## Discussion

Discussion This structure is used to define various properties of the interface when calling ifnet_allocate. A copy of these values will be stored in the ifnet and cannot be modified while the interface is attached.
