MIREDO-SERVER(8) System Manager's Manual MIREDO-SERVER(8) NAME
miredo-server - Teredo server for Unix SYNOPSIS
miredo-server [-c config_file] [-f] [-u user] [server_name] DESCRIPTON
Miredo-server is an Unix daemon program which implements a Teredo server as specified by the "Teredo: Tunneling IPv6 over UDP through NATs" Internet proposed standard (RFC 4380). A Teredo server is required for Teredo clients to setup their IPv6 connectivity through Teredo. A Teredo server must have two global static subsequent IPv4 addresses. It receives packets from Teredo clients and Teredo relays on UDP port 3544. OPTIONS
-c config_file or --config config_file Specify an alternate configuration file for Miredo instead of the default, /etc/miredo/miredo-server.conf. -f or --foreground Do not detach from the console. Run the program in the foreground. -h or --help Display some help and exit. -u username or --user username Override the user that the program will run as. By default, it runs as nobody. -V or --version Display program version and license and exit. SECURITY
miredo-server requires root privileges to create open a raw IPv6 socket that is used to emit ICMPv6 Echo Request packets. Once its initial- ization is complete, it will setgid, chroot into an empty directory and ultimately setuid (see option -u), so as to decrease the system's exposure to potential security issues. SIGNALS
SIGHUP Force a reload of the daemon. SIGINT, SIGTERM Shutdown the daemon. SIGUSR1, SIGUSR2 Do nothing, might be used in future versions. FILES
/etc/miredo/miredo-server.conf The default configuration file. /var/run/miredo-server.pid The process-id file. SEE ALSO

RDISC6(8) System Manager's Manual RDISC6(8) NAME
rdisc - ICMPv6 Router Discovery tool SYNOPSIS
rdisc6 [-qv] [-r attempts] [-w wait_ms] [ IPv6 address] <iface> DESCRIPTON
RDisc6 is an Unix program which implements the ICMPv6 Router Discovery in userland (it is normally done by the kernel). It is used to lookup the list of on-link routers and IPv6 prefixes. It can also be used to force the kernel to update the state of a given IPv6-autoconfigured network interface. The name of the network interface to probe routers for must be specified. OPTIONS
-1 or --single Exit as soon as the first advertisement is received. -h or --help Display some help and exit. -m or --multiple Wait for possible multiple advertisements and print all of them (default). -n or --numeric If the optional parameter is not a valid IPv6 address, do not try to resolve it as a DNS hostname. -q or --quiet Only display advertised IPv6 prefixes. Display nothing in case of failure. That is mostly useful when calling the program from a shell script. -r attempts or --retry attempts Send ICMPv6 Router Discovery that many times until a reply is received, or abort. By default, rdisc6 will try 3 times before abort- ing (MAX_RTR_SOLICITATIONS from RFC2461). -V or --version Display program version and license and exit. -v or --verbose Display verbose information. That is the default. -w wait_ms or --wait wait_ms Wait wait_ms milliseconds for a response before retrying. By default, rdisc6 waits 4 second between each attempts (RTR_SOLICITA- TION_INTERVAL from RFC2461). SECURITY
rdisc6 must be setuid root to allow use by non privileged users. It will drop its root privileges before any attempt is made to send or receive data from the network to reduce the possible impact of a security vulnerability. SEE ALSO
