           Summary: NetworkInterface.OperationStatus is always Unknown
    Classification: Mono
           Product: Mono: Class Libraries
           Version: 2.6.x
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: CORLIB

Test Program:

using System;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;

class MainClass
{
    public static void Main (string[] args)
    {
        foreach (var nic in NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces ()) {
            Console.WriteLine ("{0}: {1}", nic.Name, nic.OperationalStatus);
        }
    }
}

One Mac OSX 10.6.4 this will list all network interfaces as having an Unknown
OperationalStatus.  While accurate (the runtime apparently does *not* know the
status of those network interfaces), it would be nice to have a little more
information, such as which adapters are Up.

Reproducible: Always
