NAME

6       aoecfg - manipulate AoE configuration strings
7

SYNOPSIS

9       aoecfg [-c cmd] [-s cfgstr] [-t timeout] [shelf slot] [netif]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Aoecfg(8)  sends AoE configuration commands that control the retrivial,
13       conditional or unconditional  setting  of  AoE  configuration  strings.
14       Since  configuration  happens  before  the MAC address of the target is
15       known, the packet is broadcast.  AoE targets with a matching shelf  and
16       slot respond.  Since the default shelf and slot are the wildcard values
17       0xffff and 0xff, with no arguments aoecfg(8) will return  configuration
18       strings from all targets visible on the default interface, eth0.

OPTIONS

21       -c cmd  specify  the  AoE  configuration command.  The default is read.
22               The available commands are
23
24       read Read the server config string  without  performing  any  test  and
25               respond.
26
27       test  Respond  only  if the specified string exactly matches the server
28               configuration string.
29
30       prefix Respond only if the specified string is a prefix of  the  server
31               configuration string.
32
33       set If the current server config string is empty, set the server config
34               string to the argument string  and  respond.   If  the  current
35               server config string is not empty, return a response with Flags
36               bit E set and Error set to 4.
37
38       fset Force set the server config string  to  the  argument  string  and
39               respond.
40
41       -s cfgstr
42               specify the config string.
43
44       -t timeout
45               specify the timeout in seconds.  The default is no timeout.  If
46               neither the shelf nor the slot are  specified,  aoecfg(8)  will
47               exit  after  the  first result.  Otherwise, aoecfg(8) will exit
48               only after the timeout has expired since it does not  know  how
49               many responses to expect.
50
51       shelf slot
52               specify  the shelf and slot used in the query.  If unspecified,
53               they default to broadcast.
54
55       netif   specifiy the network interface.  The default is eth0.
