lstcpip command

Purpose

Displays the Virtual I/O Server TCP/IP settings and parameters.

Syntax

lstcpip -interfaces [-fmt delimiter]

lstcpip [-state] [-num] [-field] [-fmt delimiter]

lstcpip [-num] [-routtable] [-routinfo] [-state] [-arp]

lstcpip -stored

lstcpip -adapters

lstcpip [-sockets] [-family {inet | inet6 | unix}]

lstcpip -namesrv

lstcpip [ -state [ -field FieldName ...] ] | [ -routtable [ -field FieldName ... ]] [ -fmt delimter ]

lstcpip -hostname

Note: If IPv6 is configured on the Virtual I/O Server, the lstcpip command lists an IPv6 address. Due to its size, the IPv6 address spans both the Network and Address fields of the output screen.

Description

The lstcpip command displays the current and stored TCP/IP setting such as IP address, routing table, sockets, name server settings, and so forth.

Flags

-adapters	Lists Ethernet adapters on the system.
-arp	Displays the current ARP table entries.
-family	Specifies the INET, INET6, or UNIX® socket family.
-field	Specifies a list of fields to display.
-fmt	Divides output by a user-specified delimiter.
-hostname	Displays the system hostname.
-interfaces	Displays all of the interfaces configured on the system. Specifically, it displays their addresses, network masks, states, and mac addresses.
-namesrv	Lists DNS name servers in search order and domain name.
-num	Displays numeric output, rather than trying to resolve host names.
-routtable	Displays the routing tables.
-routinfo	Displays the routing tables, including the user-configured and current costs of each route.
-sockets	Displays information about currently open sockets.
-state	Displays the current state of all configured interfaces.
-stored	Displays stored TCP/IP configuration, which will be applied when the system starts. It will list interface IP addresses, any defined static routes, host names, and DNS info.

Examples

To list the Virtual I/O Server TCP/IP configuration, type:
```
lstcpip -stored
```
To list the current routing table, type:
```
lstcpip -routtable
```
To list open inet sockets, type:
```
lstcpip -sockets -family inet
```

To display the states of all interfaces using a delimiter, type:

lstcpip -states -fmt “/”

This command produces output similar to the following:

sit0/1480/link#2/9.3.126.60/0/0/0/0/0

To display all interface information, type:

lstcpip -interfaces

This command produces output similar to the following:
