 DESCRIPTION


The ipadm command is a stable replacement for the ifconfig(1M) and
ndd(1M) commands. It is used to create IP interfaces and to confgure IP
addresses on those interfaces. It is also used to get, set or reset properties
on interfaces, addresses and protocols.

For subcommands that take an addrobj, the addrobj specifies a
unique address on the system. It is made up of two parts, delimited by a '/'.
The first part is the name of the interface and the second part is a string up
to 32 characters long. For example, "lo0/v4" is a loopback interface
addrobj name.

For subcommands that take a protocol, this can be one of
the following values: ip, ipv4, ipv6, icmp, tcp, sctp or udp.

 SUBCOMMANDS

The following subcommands are supported:
create-if [-t] interface

The create-if subcommand is used to create an IP interface that will
handle both IPv4 and IPv6 packets. The interface will be enabled as part of
the creation process. The IPv4 interface will have the address 0.0.0.0.
The IPv6 interface will have the adress ::.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the creation is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


disable-if [-t] interface

The disable-if subcommand is used to disable an IP interface.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the disable is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


enable-if [-t] interface

The enable-if subcommand is used to enable an IP interface.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the enable is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


\fbdelete-if interface

The delete-if subcommand is used to permanently delete an IP interface.


show-if [[-p] -o field[,...]] [interface]

The show-if subcommand is used to show the current IP interface
configuration.
The -p option (also --parsable) prints
the output in a parsable format.
The -o option (also --output) is used
to select which fields will be shown. The field value can be one of the
following names:

ALL

Display all fields


IFNAME

The name of the interface


STATE

The state can be one of the following values:

ok - resources for the interface have been allocated
offline - the interface is offline
failed - the interface's datalink is down
down - the interface is down
disabled - the interface is disabled


CURRENT

A set of single character flags indicating the following:

b - broadcast (mutually exclusive with 'p')

m - multicast

p - point-to-point (mutually exclusive with 'b')

v - virtual interface

I - IPMP

s - IPMP standby

i - IPMP inactive

V - VRRP

a - VRRP accept mode

4 - IPv4

6 - IPv6


PERSISTENT

A set of single character flags showing what configuration will be used the
next time the interface is enabled:

s - IPMP standby

4 - IPv4

6 - IPv6


set-ifprop [-t] -p prop=<value[,...]> -m protocol interface

The set-ifprop subcommand is used to set a property's value(s) on the IP
interface.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the setting is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.
The -p option (also --prop) specifies the property name and
value(s). The property name can be one of the following:


arp

Enables ("on") or disables ("off") ARP.


exchange_routes

Enables ("on") or disables ("off") the exchange of routing data.


forwarding

Enables ("on") or disables ("off") IP forwarding.


metric

Set the routing metric to the numeric value. The value is treated as extra
hops to the destination.


mtu

Set the maximum transmission unit to the numeric value.


nud

Enables ("on") or disables ("off") neighbor unreachability detection.


usesrc

Indicates which interface to use for source address selection. A value
"none" may also be used.


The -m option (also --module) specifies which protocol
the setting applies to.


reset-ifprop [-t] -p prop -m protocol interface

The reset-ifprop subcommand is used to reset an IP interface's property
value to the default.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the disable is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.
The -p option (also --prop) specifies the property name.
See the set-ifprop subcommand for the list of property names.
The -m option (also --module) specifies which protocol
the setting applies to.


show-ifprop [[-c]-o field[,...]] [-p prop,...] [-m protocol]
 [interface]

The show-ifprop subcommand is used to display the property values
for one or all of the IP interfaces.
The -c option (also --parsable) prints
the output in a parsable format.
The -o option (also --output) is used
to select which fields will be shown. The field value can be one of the
following names:

ALL

Display all fields


IFNAME

The name of the interface


PROPERTY

The name of the property


PROTO

The name of the protocol


PERM

If the property is readable ("r") and/or writable ("w").


CURRENT

The value of the property


PERSISTENT

The persistent value of the property


DEFAULT

The default value of the property


POSSIBLE

The possible values for the property


The -p option (also --prop) is used
to specify which properties to display. See the set-ifprop
subcommand for the list of property names.
The -m option (also --module) specifies which protocol
to display.


create-addr [-t] -T static [-d] \\
 -a {local|remote}=addr[/prefixlen],... addrobj

create-addr [-t] -T dhcp [-w seconds | forever ] addrobj

create-addr [-t] -T addrconf [-i interface-id] \\
 [-p {stateful|stateless}={yes|no},..] addrobj

The create-addr subcommand is used to set an address on an IP interface.
The address will be enabled but can disabled using the disable-addr
subcommand. This subcommand has three different forms, depending on the
value of the -T option.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the address is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.
The -T static option creates a static addrobj. This takes the following
options:


The -d option (also --down) means the address is down.
The -a option (also --address) specifies the address.
The "local" or "remote" prefix can be used for a point-to-point interface.
In this case, both addresses must be given.
Otherwise, the equal sign ("=") should be omitted and the address should be
provided by itself and with no second address.


The -T dhcp option causes the address to be obtained via DHCP.
This takes the following options:


The -w option (also --wait) gives the time, in seconds,
that the command should wait to obtain an address.


The -T addrconf option creates an auto-configured address.
This takes the following options:


The -i option (also --interface-id) gives the interface ID to
be used.
The -p option (also --prop) indicates which method of
auto-configuration should be used.


down-addr [-t] addrobj

The down-addr subcommand is used to down the address. This will
stop packets from being sent or received.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the down is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


up-addr [-t] addrobj

The up-addr subcommand is used to up the address. This will
enable packets to be sent and received.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the up is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


disable-addr [-t] addrobj

The disable-addr subcommand is used to disable the address.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the disable is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


enable-addr [-t] addrobj

The enable-addr subcommand is used to enable the address.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the enable is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.


refresh-addr [-i] addrobj

The refresh-addr subcommand is used to extend the lease for DHCP
addresses. It also restarts duplicate address detection for Static addresses.
The -i option (also --inform) means
that the network configuration will be obtained from DHCP without taking
a lease on the address.


delete-addr [-r] addrobj

The delete-addr subcommand deletes the given address.
The -r option (also --release) is used for DHCP-assigned
addresses to indicate that the address should be released.


show-addr [[-p] -o field[,...]] [addrobj]

The show-addr subcommand is used to show the current address properties.
The -p option (also --parsable) prints
the output in a parsable format.

to select which fields will be shown. The field value can be one of the
following names:

ALL

when the address is enabled.

U - up

p - private, not advertised to routing

d - deprecated (not used for outgoing packets)


ADDR

The address


set-addrprop [-t] -p prop=<value[,...]> addrobj

The set-addrprop subcommand is used to set a property's value(s) on the
addrobj.
The -t option (also --temporary) means
that the setting is temporary and will not be persistent across reboots.
The -p option (also --prop) specifies the property name and
value(s). The property name can be one of the following:


broadcast

The broadcast address (read-only)
