PIM6STAT(1)            DragonFly General Commands Manual           PIM6STAT(1)

NAME

pim6stat - show PIM for IPv6 status

SYNOPSIS

pim6stat [-ds] [-f dumpfile] [-p pidfile] [-w waitsec]

DESCRIPTION

pim6stat shows status or statistics of the PIM for IPv6 daemon currently running. When invoked, it sends a signal to let the daemon dump its internal status to a file, waits for dumping, and outputs the content of the file to standard output. Options supported by pim6stat: -d specifies to show the status of a dense mode daemon (if running). By default, pim6stat assumes sparse mode. -f specifies the dumpfile to which the PIM daemon dumps its status. -p specifies the PID file of the currently running daemon. -s specifies to dump statistics instead of status (for sparse mode only). -w specifies the wait period in seconds between sending a signal to the daemon and dumping the status or statistics to the dumpfile.

FILES
