to the common practice of inventing an unwieldy shell construct each time. Note: -f (ala route -f) is in use already, and FreeBSD provides "prior art" for the use of -d and -a together to accomplish this.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
program displays and modifies the Internet-to-Ethernet address translation
|
|
tables used by the address resolution protocol
|
|
.Pq Xr arp 4 .
|
|
With no flags, the program displays the current
|
|
.Tn ARP
|
|
entry for
|
|
.Ar hostname .
|
|
The host may be specified by name or by number,
|
|
using Internet dot notation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Available options:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl a
|
|
The program displays all of the current
|
|
.Tn ARP
|
|
entries.
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
A super-user may delete an entry for the host called
|
|
.Ar hostname
|
|
with the
|
|
.Fl d
|
|
flag. If used with
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
instead of a
|
|
.Ar hostname ,
|
|
it will delete all arp entries.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Show network addresses as numbers (normally
|
|
.Nm
|
|
attempts to display addresses symbolically).
|
|
.It Fl s Ar hostname ether_addr
|
|
Create an
|
|
.Tn ARP
|
|
entry for the host called
|
|
.Ar hostname
|
|
with the Ethernet address
|
|
.Ar ether_addr .
|
|
The Ethernet address is given as six hex bytes separated by colons.
|
|
The entry will be permanent unless the word
|
|
.Ar temp
|
|
is given in the command.
|
|
If the word
|
|
.Ar pub
|
|
is given, the entry will be "published"; i.e., this system will
|
|
act as an
|
|
.Tn ARP
|
|
server,
|
|
responding to requests for
|
|
.Ar hostname
|
|
even though the host address is not its own.
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Causes the file
|
|
.Ar filename
|
|
to be read and multiple entries to be set in the
|
|
.Tn ARP
|
|
tables. Entries
|
|
in the file should be of the form
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bd -filled -offset indent -compact
|
|
.Ar hostname ether_addr
|
|
.Op Ar temp
