linfo - manpage
NAME
linfo - show information about a netkit lab
SYNOPSIS
linfo [options]
DESCRIPTION
This command can be used to display the following information about a Netkit lab without launching it:
- โ
descriptive information (retrieved from lab.conf)
- โ
number of virtual machines that make up the lab
- โ
whether the lab supports parallel startup (by means of a lab.conf file)
Optionally, linfo can generate a graphical link-level topology map of the lab and save it inside a PostScript file. This requires the Graphviz library to be installed on your system.
The following options are supported by linfo:
- -d DIRECTORY
Assume the Netkit lab that is located inside DIRECTORY. If no -d option is provided, lhalt assumes that the lab is located in the current directory. The path to the lab directory (being that the current directory or one provided by -d) must never contain spaces.
- -m FILE
- --map=FILE
Save a graphical link-level topology map of the lab in PostScript format inside FILE. This option requires the Graphviz library to be properly installed on your system in order to work.
The following standard options are also supported.
- -h
- --help
Show usage information.
- --version
Print information about the installed Netkit release and the host kernel version and exit. If ''<unavailable>'' is printed instead of a version number, then the corresponding information could not be retrieved (for example because a non-standard Netkit kernel or filesystem is being used).
