TIPC(8) Linux TIPC(8)
tipc - a TIPC configuration and management tool
tipc [ OPTIONS ] COMMAND ARGUMENTS
COMMAND := { bearer | link | media | nametable | node | socket }
OPTIONS := { -h[help] }
The Transparent Inter-Process Communication (TIPC) protocol offers
total address transparency between processes which allows
applications in a clustered computer environment to communicate
quickly and reliably with each other, regardless of their location
within the cluster.
TIPC originated at the telecommunications manufacturer Ericsson.
The first open source version of TIPC was created in 2000 when
Ericsson released its first Linux version of TIPC. TIPC was
introduced in the mainline Linux kernel in 2006 and is now widely
used both within and outside of Ericsson.
-h, --help
Show help about last given command. For example tipc bearer
--help will show bearer help and tipc --help will show
general help. The position of the option in the string is
irrelevant.
-j, -json
Output results in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).
-p, -pretty
The default JSON format is compact and more efficient to
parse but hard for most users to read. This flag adds
indentation for readability.
BEARER - Show or modify TIPC bearers
LINK - Show or modify TIPC links
MEDIA - Show or modify TIPC media
NAMETABLE
- Show TIPC nametable
NODE - Show or modify TIPC node parameters
SOCKET - Show TIPC sockets
Command arguments are described in a command specific man page and
typically consists of nested commands along with key value pairs.
If no arguments are given a command typically shows its help text.
The explicit help option -h or --help can occur anywhere among the
arguments and will show help for the last valid command given.
Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer
upon failure.
