65.Sh DESCRIPTION
66The
67.Nm
68command applies a
69.Ar level
70level socket option with name
71.Ar optname
72and value
73.Ar optval
74on a TCP endpoint from the command line.
75.Pp
76TCP endpoints in the
77.Dv TIME_WAIT
78state can not be handled by
79.Nm .
80TCP endpoints in the
81.Dv SYN_RCVD
82state can only be handled if their prior state was
83.Dv SYN_SENT .
84.Pp
85.Op Ar level
86can be specified as a non negative number or a symbolic name like
87.Dv SOL_SOCKET ,
88.Dv IPPROTO_IP ,
89.Dv IPPROTO_IPV6 ,
90or
91.Dv IPPROTO_TCP .
92If not specified,
93.Nm
94deduces the level from
95.Ar optname ,
96if provided as a symbolic name.
97If that is not the case,
98.Dv IPPROTO_TCP
99is used.
100.Pp
101.Ar optname
102can be specified as a non negative number or a symbolic name like
103.Dv SO_DEBUG ,
104.Dv IP_TOS ,
105.Dv IPV6_TCLASS ,
106.Dv TCP_LOG ,
107.Dv TCP_CONGESTION ,
108or
109.Dv TCP_FUNCTION_BLK .
110.Pp
111.Ar optval
112can be in integer value, which will be converted to a binary value and
113passed as an int value.
114If it cannot be parsed as an integer value, it will be processed as a string.
115If the
116.Ar optname
117is
118.Dv TCP_FUNCTION_BLK
119then
120.Ar optval
121is converted to a
122.Vt "struct tcp_function_set" .
123.Pp
124If
125.Fl i Ar id
126is specified then
127.Nm
128will apply the socket option to the TCP endpoint with the
129.Dv inp_gencnt
130provided as
131.Ar id .
132The
133.Dv inp_gencnt
134for existing TCP endpoints can be determined by using
135.Xr sockstat 1 .
136.Pp
137If
138.Fl a
139is specified then
140.Nm
141will apply the socket option to all TCP endpoints subject to the above state
142restrictions.
143.Pp
144If
145.Fl C Ar cc-algo
146is specified then
147.Nm
148will apply the socket option to all TCP endpoints using the TCP
149congestion control algorithm
150.Ar cc-algo
151and subject to the above state restrictions.
152.Pp
153If
154.Fl S Ar stack
155is specified then
156.Nm
157will apply the socket option to all TCP endpoints using the TCP
158stack
159.Ar stack
160and subject to the above state restrictions.
161.Pp
162If
163.Fl s Ar state
164is specified then
165.Nm
166will apply the socket option to all TCP endpoints being in the state
167.Ar state .
168.Ar state
169is one of
170.Dv CLOSED ,
171.Dv LISTEN ,
172.Dv SYN_SENT ,
173.Dv SYN_RCVD ,
174.Dv ESTABLISHED ,
175.Dv CLOSE_WAIT ,
176.Dv FIN_WAIT_1 ,
177.Dv CLOSING ,
178.Dv LAST_ACK ,
179.Dv FIN_WAIT_2 .
180Using
181.Dv SYN_RCVD
182only applies to TCP endpoints in the state
183.Dv SYN_RCVD
184if their prior state was
185.Dv SYN_SENT .
186.Pp
187If multiple of
188.Fl C Ar cc-algo ,
189.Fl S Ar stack ,
190and
191.Fl s Ar state
192are specified,
193.Nm
194will apply the socket option to all TCP endpoints not being in the
195state
196.Dv TIME_WAIT
197and using the congestion control algorithm
198.Ar cc-algo ,
199being in the state
200.Ar state ,
201and using the TCP stack
202.Ar stack ,
203if specified.
204.Pp
205If none of the
206.Fl a ,
207.Fl C ,
208.Fl S ,
209or
210.Fl s
211options are specified then the option
212.Fl i
213must be specified.
214.Sh EXIT STATUS
215.Ex -std
216.Sh EXAMPLES
217To diagnose a problem with a particular TCP connection to
218.Xr sshd 8 ,
219first determine its
220.Dv inp_gencnt
221using
222.Xr sockstat 1 :
223.Bd -literal -offset indent
224# sockstat -4 -c -i -p 22 -P tcp -q
225root     sshd       827   4  tcp4 \e
226	192.168.1.1:22        192.168.1.2:53736     435
227.Ed
228.Pp
229Then, use the following command to enable Black Box Logging on it:
230.Bd -literal -offset indent
231# tcpsso -i 435 TCP_LOG 4
232.Ed
233.Pp
234To switch all TCP endpoints from using the freebsd stack to the rack stack use:
235.Bd -literal -offset indent
236# tcpsso -S freebsd TCP_FUNCTION_BLK rack
237.Ed
238.Pp
239The following command will set the congestion control module of all TCP
240endpoints currently using cubic as its congestion control algorithm to the
241congestion control algorithm newreno:
242.Bd -literal -offset indent
243# tcpsso -C cubic TCP_CONGESTION newreno
