.TH QETHCONF 8 "Apr 2006" "s390-tools"
.SH "NAME"
qethconf \- Configure IBM QETH function IPA, VIPA and Proxy ARP.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBqethconf\fR \fITYPE\fR \fICMD\fR [[\-x]\fIIPADDR\fR[/\fIMASKBITS\fR]] [\fIINTERFACE\fR]                                  
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBqethconf\fR is a shell script, that simplifies the usage of the 
IBM QETH IPA, VIPA and Proxy ARP function.

.TP 
\fITYPE\fR
<ipa/vipa/parp|rxip/list_all>                
.br 
Choose one of these keywords for function:
.br 
ipa \- IP address takeover (IPA)
.br 
vipa \- Virtual IP address (VIPA)
.br 
parp|rxip \- Proxy ARP
.br 
list_all \- List all available IPA, VIPA and Proxy ARP entries 
from the /proc\-filesystem (kernel 2.4) or from the sysfs (kernel 2.6)
.TP 
\fICMD\fR 
<add/del/inv4/inv6/list>           
.br 
where
.br 
add  \- Add an IP address or address range.
.br 
del  \- Delete an IP address or address range.
.br 
inv4 \- Invert the selection of address ranges for IPv4 (only IPA).
.br 
inv6 \- Invert the selection of address ranges for IPv6 (only IPA).
.br 
list \- List TYPE specific entries from the /proc\-filesystem (kernel 2.4) or from the sysfs (kernel 2.6) 

.TP 
\fIIPADDR\fR
Required for commands add and del.
.br 
IP address in IPv4 or IPv6 format,
.br 
e.g. 192.168.10.38 or FE80::1:800:23e7:f5db
.br 
Use preceding option \-x for hexadecimal input format,
e.g. \-xc0a80a26

.TP 
\fIMASKBITS\fR 
Number of bits set in the network mask. 
This allows to specify an address range, e.g. 192.168.10.0/24. 
This subparameter is only valid for function IPA.
.TP 
\fIINTERFACE\fR
Interface name to which the address or address range is 
bound, e.g. eth0. This parameter is required for add and
del commands. For Linux systems with a 2.6 kernel it is also 
required for the inv4 and inv6 command. 


.SH "RESTRICTIONS"
.nf 
Needs at least bash version 2.0.

.SH "EXAMPLES"
.nf 
qethconf ipa add 192.168.10.0/24 eth0
qethconf ipa add \-xc0a80a00/24 eth1
qethconf ipa inv4 eth0
qethconf parp add 10.0.0.2 eth0 (or qethconf rxip add 10.0.0.2 eth0)
qethconf vipa del 192.168.10.2 tr0 
qethconf vipa add FE80::1:800:23e7:f5db eth1
qethconf list_all
