This patch adds support for tokenized IIDs, that enable administrators to assign well-known host-part addresses to nodes whilst still obtaining global network prefix from Router Advertisements. This is the iproute2 part for the kernel patch f53adae4eae5 (``net: ipv6: add tokenized interface identifier support''). Example commands with iproute2: Setting a device token: # ip token set ::1a:2b:3c:4d/64 dev eth1 Getting a device token: # ip token get dev eth1 token ::1a:2b:3c:4d dev eth1 Listing all tokens: # ip token list (or: ip token) token :: dev eth0 token ::1a:2b:3c:4d dev eth1 Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org>

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
IPv6 tokenized interface identifer support is used for assigning well-known
|
|
host-part addresses to nodes whilst still obtaining a global network prefix
|
|
from Router advertisements. The primary target for tokenized identifiers are
|
|
server platforms where addresses are usually manually configured, rather than
|
|
using DHCPv6 or SLAAC. By using tokenized identifiers, hosts can still
|
|
determine their network prefix by use of SLAAC, but more readily be
|
|
automatically renumbered should their network prefix change [1]. Tokenized
|
|
IPv6 Identifiers are described in the draft
|
|
[1]: <draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02>.
|
|
|
|
.SS ip token set - set an interface token
|
|
set the interface token to the kernel. Once a token is set, it cannot be
|
|
removed from the interface, only overwritten.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I TOKEN
|
|
the interface identifer token address.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI dev " DEV"
|
|
the networking interface.
|
|
|
|
.SS ip token get - get the interface token from the kernel
|
|
show a tokenized interface identifer of a particular networking device.
|
|
.B Arguments:
|
|
coincide with the arguments of
|
|
.B ip token set
|
|
but the
|
|
.I TOKEN
|
|
must be left out.
|
|
.SS ip token list - list all interface tokens
|
|
list all tokenized interface identifers for the networking interfaces from
|
|
the kernel.
