chilli_rtmon(1)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, you're looking at chilli_rtmon(1) from the General Commands Manual — and the name is giving exactly: chilli_rtmon — Default Route Monitor for CoovaChilli. that's the whole name vibe, no cap. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the lineup is literally this, character-for-character:

chilli_rtmon -file <update file> -pid <chilli pid> [-debug]

so that's the -file <update file> situation, the -pid <chilli pid> situation, and [-debug] exactly as shown. 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

okay so here’s the tea: chilli_rtmon is a utility that detects changes in the default route, discovers the next hop MAC address, and updates a file with the chilli nexthop option. after it updates the file, a SIGHUP signal is sent to the running chilli server to instruct it to reread the configuration. periodt. ✨

🌸 EXAMPLES 🌸

run it like this, bestie:

# chilli_rtmon -debug

and also:

# chilli_rtmon -file /tmp/nexthop.conf -pid <pid>
