💾 NODESAVE — saving NET/ROM routing info, slay 💾

okay so bestie, this is the nodesave(8) manual page from the Linux System Managers Manual, and it's literally here to save your NET/ROM routing info. No cap, it's giving useful little system helper. 💖

💖 NAME 💖

nodesave — saves NET/ROM routing information ✨

🩵 SYNOPSIS 🩵

nodesave [-p path] [-v] [filename]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So nodesave saves the contents of the /proc filesystem entries for the NET/ROM routing tables. The output of the program is in the form of a Bourne shell script that calls nrparms(8) to recreate the NET/ROM routing information. If no filename is given on the command line, the program writes the script to stdout. Periodt. 💅

Typically nodesave would be used when taking a system off-air so that the NET/ROM routing may be quickly restored when the system is brought back on-line. It's like making a little routing-care package before your system goes bye-bye. 🎀

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -p path — Set the path to the nrparms binary. This only affects the output of the program. Default is /usr/sbin. So yeah, it changes the output vibe, not the whole program's personality. 🫶
  • -v — Display the version. Iconic little version check behavior. ⭐

🔥 FILES 🔥

  • /proc/net/nr_neigh
  • /proc/net/nr_nodes

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
