aoecfg - manipulate AoE configuration strings
aoecfg [-c cmd]
[-s cfgstr] [-t timeout] [shelf slot] [netif]
Aoecfg(8) sends
AoE configuration commands that control the retrivial, conditional or unconditional
setting of AoE configuration strings. Since configuration happens before
the MAC address of the target is known, the packet is broadcast. AoE targets
with a matching shelf and slot respond. Since the default shelf and slot
are the wildcard values 0xffff and 0xff, with no arguments aoecfg(8) will
return configuration strings from all targets visible on the default interface,
eth0.
- -c cmd
- specify the AoE configuration command. The default is
read. The available commands are
- read
- Read the server config string without
performing any test and respond.
- test
- Respond only if the specified string
exactly matches the server configuration string.
- prefix
- Respond only if
the specified string is a prefix of the server configuration string.
- set
- If the current server config string is empty, set the server config string
to the argument string and respond. If the current server config string
is not empty, return a response with Flags bit E set and Error set to 4.
- fset
- Force set the server config string to the argument string and respond.
- -s cfgstr
- specify the config string.
- -t timeout
- specify the timeout in seconds.
The default is no timeout. If neither the shelf nor the slot are specified,
aoecfg(8) will exit after the first result. Otherwise, aoecfg(8) will exit
only after the timeout has expired since it does not know how many responses
to expect.
- shelf slot
- specify the shelf and slot used in the query. If unspecified,
they default to broadcast.
- netif
- specifiy the network interface. The default
is eth0.
