NAME
rtadvctl - control program for rtadvd(8) daemon
SYNOPSIS
rtadvctl [-v] subcommand [interface ...]
DESCRIPTION
rtadvctl is a utility that communicates with the rtadvd(8) daemon and
displays information about Router Advertisement messages being sent on
each interface.
This utility provides several options and subcommands. The options are
as follows:
-v Increase verbosity level. When specified once, the rtadvctl
utility shows additional information about prefixes, RDNSS, and
DNSSL options. When given twice, it additionally shows
information about inactive interfaces and some statistics.
The subcommands are as follows:
reload [interfaces...]
Specifies to reload the configuration file. If one or more
interfaces are specified, configuration entries for the
interfaces will be reloaded selectively.
enable interfaces...
Specifies to mark the interface as enabled and to tries to reload
the configuration entry. This subcommand is useful for
dynamically-added interfaces.
The rtadvd(8) daemon marks an interface as enabled if the
interface exists and the configuration file has a valid entry for
it when it is invoked.
disable interfaces...
Specifies to mark the interface as disabled.
shutdown
Makes the rtadvd(8) daemon shut down. Note that the rtadvd(8)
daemon will send several RAs with zero lifetime to invalidate the
old information on each interface. It will take at most nine
seconds.
show [interfaces...]
Displays information about the Router Advertisement messages
being sent on each interface.
