NAME
spray - spray packets SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/spray [-c count] [-d delay] [-l length] [-t nettype] host DESCRIPTION
spray sends a one-way stream of packets to host using RPC, and reports how many were received, as well as the transfer rate. The host argu- ment can be either a name or an Internet address. spray is not useful as a networking benchmark, as it uses unreliable connectionless transports, UDP for example. spray can report a large number of packets dropped when the drops were caused by spray sending packets faster than they can be buffered locally, that is, before the packets get to the network medium. OPTIONS
-c count Specify how many packets to send. The default value of count is the number of packets required to make the total stream size 100000 bytes. -d delay Specify how many microseconds to pause between sending each packet. The default is 0. -l length The length parameter is the numbers of bytes in the Ethernet packet that holds the RPC call message. Since the data is encoded using XDR, and XDR only deals with 32 bit quantities, not all values of length are possible, and spray rounds up to the nearest possible value. When length is greater than 1514, then the RPC call can no longer be encapsulated in one Ethernet packet, so the length field no longer has a simple correspondence to Ethernet packet size. The default value of length is 86 bytes, the size of the RPC and UDP headers. -t nettype Specify class of transports. Defaults to netpath. See rpc(3NSL) for a description of supported classes.

NAME
inetadm - observe or configure inetd-controlled services SYNOPSIS
inetadm inetadm -? inetadm -p inetadm -l {FMRI | pattern} inetadm -e {FMRI | pattern} inetadm -d {FMRI | pattern} inetadm -m {FMRI | pattern} ... {name=value} ... inetadm -M {name=value} ... DESCRIPTION
The inetadm utility provides the following capabilities for inetd-managed SMF services: o Provides a list of all such services installed. o Lists the services' properties and values. o Allows enabling and disabling of services. o Allows modification of the services'property values, as well as the default values provided by inetd. See smf(5) for a description of an SMF service. With no arguments, inetadm lists all services under inetd(1M) control, including such attributes as their current run state and whether or not they are enabled. OPTIONS
For options taking one or more FMRI operands (see smf(5) for a description of an FMRI), if the operand specifies a service (instead of a service instance), and that service has only a single instance, inetadm operates on that instance. If a service name is supplied and it contains more than one instances or a pattern is supplied and and it matches more than one instance, a warning message is displayed and that operand is ignored. For those options taking name=value parameters, a description of each of the possible names and the allowed values is found in the inetd(1M) man page. The following options are supported: -? Display a usage message. -p Lists all default inet service property values provided by inetd in the form of name=value pairs. If the value is of boolean type, it is listed as TRUE or FALSE. -l {FMRI | pattern}... List all properties for the specified service instances as name=value pairs. In addition, if the property value is inherited from the default value provided by inetd, the name=value pair is identified by the token (default). Property inheritance occurs when properties do not have a specified service instance default. -e {FMRI | pattern}... Enable the specified service instances. -d {FMRI | pattern}... Disable the specified service instances. -m {FMRI | pattern}...{name=value}... Change the values of the specified properties of the identified service instances. Properties are specified as whitespace-separated name=value pairs. To remove an instance-specific value and accept the default value for a property, simply specify the property without a value, for example, name= . -M {name=value}... Change the values of the specified inetd default properties. Properties are specified as whitespace-separated name=value pairs. EXAMPLES
Example 1: Displaying Properties for a Service The following command displays the properties for the spray service. # inetadm -l network/rpc/spray:default SCOPE NAME=VALUE name="sprayd" endpoint_type="tli" proto="datagram_v" isrpc=TRUE rpc_low_version=1 rpc_high_version=1 wait=TRUE exec="/usr/lib/netsvc/spray/rpc.sprayd" user="root" default bind_addr="" default bind_fail_max=-1 default bind_fail_interval=-1 default max_con_rate=-1 default max_copies=-1 default con_rate_offline=-1 default failrate_cnt=40 default failrate_interval=60 default inherit_env=TRUE default tcp_trace=FALSE default tcp_wrappers=FALSE Example 2: Displaying Default Properties The following command displays default properties. # inetadm -p NAME=VALUE bind_addr="" bind_fail_max=-1 bind_fail_interval=-1 max_con_rate=-1 max_copies=-1 con_rate_offline=-1 failrate_cnt=40 failrate_interval=60 inherit_env=TRUE tcp_trace=FALSE tcp_wrappers=FALSE Example 3: Changing Property Values for a Service The following command changes rpc_high_version to 3 and tcp_trace to TRUE for the spray service. # inetadm -m network/rpc/spray:default rpc_high_version=3 tcp_trace=TRUE # inetadm -l network/rpc/spray:default SCOPE NAME=VALUE name="sprayd" endpoint_type="tli" proto="datagram_v" isrpc=TRUE rpc_low_version=1 rpc_high_version=3 wait=TRUE exec="/usr/lib/netsvc/spray/rpc.sprayd" user="root" default bind_addr="" default bind_fail_max=-1 default bind_fail_interval=-1 default max_con_rate=-1 default max_copies=-1 default con_rate_offline=-1 default failrate_cnt=40 default failrate_interval=60 default inherit_env=TRUE tcp_trace=TRUE default tcp_wrappers=FALSE EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 Operation completed successfully. 1 A fatal error occurred. An accompanying error message will provide further information. 2 Invalid arguments were supplied, such as an ambiguous service FMRI or pattern. ATTRIBUTES
