/**
* virConnectNumOfDefinedInterfaces:
* @conn: pointer to the hypervisor connection
*
* Provides the number of defined (inactive) interfaces on the
* physical host.
*
* Returns the number of defined interface found or -1 in case of
* error
*/
*on thephysical host*
ESX only support remote access basically, so the whole set of Interface
functions are moot. I think it's not what you're looking for anyway.
