.SH OPTIONS

|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-V" , " -Version"
|
|
print the version of the
|
|
.B ip
|
|
utility and exit.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-s" , " \-stats", " \-statistics"
|
|
output more information. If the option
|
|
appears twice or more, the amount of information increases.
|
|
As a rule, the information is statistics or some time values.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-l" , " \-loops"
|
|
Specify maximum number of loops the 'ip addr flush' logic
|
|
will attempt before giving up. The default is 10.
|
|
Zero (0) means loop until all addresses are removed.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-f" , " \-family"
|
|
followed by protocol family identifier:
|
|
.BR "inet" , " inet6"
|
|
or
|
|
.B link
|
|
,enforce the protocol family to use. If the option is not present,
|
|
the protocol family is guessed from other arguments. If the rest
|
|
of the command line does not give enough information to guess the
|
|
family,
|
|
.B ip
|
|
falls back to the default one, usually
|
|
.B inet
|
|
or
|
|
.BR "any" .
|
|
.B link
|
|
is a special family identifier meaning that no networking protocol
|
|
is involved.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-4
|
|
shortcut for
|
|
.BR "-family inet" .
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-6
|
|
shortcut for
|
|
.BR "\-family inet6" .
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-0
|
|
shortcut for
|
|
.BR "\-family link" .
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-o" , " \-oneline"
|
|
output each record on a single line, replacing line feeds
|
|
with the
|
|
.B '\e\'
|
|
character. This is convenient when you want to count records
|
|
with
|
|
.BR wc (1)
|
|
or to
|
|
.BR grep (1)
|
|
the output.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-r" , " \-resolve"
|
|
use the system's name resolver to print DNS names instead of
|
|
host addresses.

The names of all objects may be written in full or
|
|
abbreviated form, f.e.
|
|
.B address
|
|
is abbreviated as
|
|
.B addr
|
|
or just
|
|
.B a.
|
|
|
|
.SS
|
|
.I COMMAND
|
|
|
|
Specifies the action to perform on the object.
|
|
The set of possible actions depends on the object type.
|
|
As a rule, it is possible to
|
|
.BR "add" , " delete"
|
|
and
|
|
.B show
|
|
(or
|
|
.B list
|
|
) objects, but some objects do not allow all of these operations
|
|
or have some additional commands. The
|
|
.B help
|
|
command is available for all objects. It prints
|
|
out a list of available commands and argument syntax conventions.
|
|
.sp
|
|
If no command is given, some default command is assumed.
|
|
Usually it is
|
|
.B list
|
|
or, if the objects of this class cannot be listed,
|
|
.BR "help" .
