DESCRIPTION

17       boltctl is the command line interface to interact with boltd, the
18       system daemon that manages Thunderbolt 3(TM) devices. It can be used to
19       query the state of devices as well as manage them.
20
21       Devices can be globally identified via their unique identifier (uuid).
22       All commands that take a DEVICE identifier expect this unique id.
23
24       If no command is given, it is equivalent to boltctl list.
25

COMMANDS

27   authorize DEVICE
28       Authorize a currently unauthorized device identified via its unique id
29       (uuid) DEVICE. If a key is stored in the database it will be used,
30       given the security level of the domain supports secure device
31       connection. Use boltctl list to find out the uuid of a device.
32
33   enroll DEVICE
34       Authorize and record the device with the unique id DEVICE in the
35       database. If the domain supports secure connection a new key will be
36       generated and stored in the database alongside the device name and
37       vendor name. The key, if created, will be used in the future to
38       securely authorize the device.
39
40   forget DEVICE
41       Remove the information about the device with the unique id DEVICE from
42       the database. This includes the key, if one was previously generated.
43
44   info DEVICE
45       Display information about the device with the unique id DEVICE.
46
