10
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.
19
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.
