.SH NAME
|
|
atmarpd \- ATMARP/SCSP interface daemon
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B atmarpd
|
|
[\fB-l\fP <log file>]
|
|
[\fB-d\fP]
|
|
<netif> ...
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fIAtmarpd\fP provides an interface between the ATMARP server in the
|
|
kernel and the SCSP daemon for the Host ATM Research Platform
|
|
(HARP) networking software.
|
|
\fIAtmarpd\fP reads the ATMARP cache from the kernel periodically
|
|
and passes any updated entries to \fIscspd\fP so they will be
|
|
propagated to remote servers.
|
|
It also accepts updated entries that remote servers have sent to
|
|
\fIscspd\fP and, if they are
|
|
new or more up to date than current entries, installs them
|
|
in the kernel's ATMARP cache.
|
|
Both \fIatmarpd\fP and \fIscspd\fP must be running before any ATMARP
|
|
cache synchronization can take place.
|
|
|
|
When \fIatmarpd\fP starts, it parses its command line and puts
|
|
itself into the background.
|
|
|
|
The command-line options are:
|
|
.IP "\fB-l\fP <log file>" 15
|
|
Specifies that \fIatmarpd\fP is to write log messages to the
|
|
file named <log file> rather than to the system log.
|
|
.IP "\fB-d\fP" 15
|
|
Specifies that \fIatmarpd\fP is to be run in debug mode.
|
|
In debug mode, \fIatmarpd\fP is not put into the background.
|
|
Log messages are written to standard output instead of to
|
|
the log file.
|
|
.IP "<netif>" 15
|
|
Specifies the network interface(s) for which the host is providing
|
|
ATMARP service and whose caches are to be synchronized using SCSP.
|
|
If multiple network interface names are specified, \fIatmarpd\fP
|
|
will provide an interface to \fIscspd\fP for the servers on all the
|
|
specified interfaces.
|
|
|
|
.SH SIGNAL PROCESSING
|
|
The following signals can be used to control \fIatmarpd\fP:
|
|
|
|
.IP \fBSIGINT\fP 10
|
|
Dump debugging information to a file.
|
|
When it receives a SIGINT signal, \fIatmarpd\fP dumps a summary of
|
|
its control blocks to a text file (see "\fBFILES\fB").
|
|
|
|
.SH FILES
|
|
|
|
.IP "/tmp/atmarpd.<pid>.<seq>.out"
|
|
Debugging information dump file name.
|
|
\fIAtmarpd\fP writes a summary of its control blocks to this file
|
|
when it receives a SIGINT signal.
|
|
<pid> is the process ID of the daemon and <seq> is a sequence
|
|
number which is incremented every time a dump is taken.
|
|
|

.SH BUGS
|
|
Results are unpredictable if multiple instantiations of
|
|
\fIatmarpd\fP are run simulatneously for a given network interface.
