💖 TIPC-NODE 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about tipc-node from the iproute2 fam — it's the little tool that lets you mess with and peek at your local node's parameters, or list out the peer nodes. it's giving "network admin but make it cute". ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

tipc-node — modify and show local node parameters, or list peer nodes. yes that's the whole vibe. 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

tipc node set { address ADDRESS | netid NETID }

tipc node get { address | netid }

tipc node list

so you're either setting stuff, getting stuff, or listing the peers. three moods. pick one. 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

these flags can go anywhere in the command chain, no cap — the position literally does not matter.

  • -h, --help — shows help about the last valid command you typed. like, tipc node --help will show you the node help, and tipc --help will show you the general help. the way the option just floats wherever in the string and still works?? iconic. 🔥

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

🧚 Node parameters 🧚

  • address — the TIPC logical address, bestie. it comes in the form x.y.z where x, y and z are unsigned integers. so like, three lil numbers vibing with dots between them. 💫
  • netid — the network identity. you can use this to create individual TIPC clusters on the same media. yes, multiple clusters, same media, no drama. slay. 👑

🌈 EXIT STATUS 🌈

exit status is 0 if the command was successful, or a positive integer if it failed. so 0 = we ate, anything else = something went sideways. 😭

🫶 SEE ALSO 🫶

the whole squad, fr fr. go read them all. 📚

🙈 REPORTING BUGS 🙈

found a bug? report it to the Network Developers mailing list at netdev@vger.kernel.org — that's where the development and maintenance primarily happens. and good news: you do not have to be subscribed to the list to send a message there. so no excuses, bestie, go tell them. 💌
