MTEST(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MTEST(8)NAMEmtest -- test multicast socket operationsSYNOPSISmtestDESCRIPTIONThe mtest utility is a small program for testing multicast socket operations. It accepts the following commands, interactively, or as part of a scripted input file (useful for automated testing): a ifname mac-addr Join the link-layer group address mac-addr on interface ifname. The group address should be in IEEE 802 MAC format, delimited by colon (':') characters. d ifname mac-addr Leave the link-layer group address mac-addr on interface ifname. m ifname 1/0 Set or reset ALLMULTI mode on interface ifname. This option is deprecated and is now a no-op. p ifname 1/0 Set or reset promiscuous mode on interface ifname. j mcast-addr ifname [source-addr] Join the multicast address mcast-addr on the interface with name ifname. If an optional source source-addr is specified, a source-specific join will be performed; if mtest is already joined to the multicast address, the source will be added to its filter list. l mcast-addr ifname [source-addr] Leave the multicast address mcast-addr on the interface with address ifname. If a source source-addr is specified, only that source will be left. i mcast-addr ifname n source-addr ... Set the socket with membership of mcast-addr on interface ifname to include filter mode, and add n sources beginning with source-addr to the inclusion filter list. e mcast-addr ifname n source-addr ... Set the socket with membership of mcast-addr on interface ifname to exclude filter mode, and add n sources beginning with source-addr to the exclusion filter list. t mcast-addr ifname source-addr Set the socket with membership of mcast-addr on interface ifname to block traffic from source source-addr. b mcast-addr ifname source-addr Set the socket with membership of mcast-addr on interface ifname to allow traffic from source source-addr. g mcast-addr ifname n Print n source filter entries for mcast-addr on interface ifname. f filename Read commands from the file filename. s n Sleep for n seconds. ? List legal commands. q Quit the program.IMPLEMENTATION NOTESFor each command implemented by mtest, the address family of each argument must be identical; it is not possible to mix IPv4 multicast mem- berships with IPv6, for example. To support IPv6, all commands have now changed to accept an interface name rather than an interface address. For IPv4, the program will per- form a lookup of the primary IP address based on the interface name. This may fail if no primary IP address is assigned.SEE ALSOD. Thaler, B. Fenner, and B.
