NAME
       tipc-bearer - show or modify TIPC bearers


SYNOPSIS
       tipc bearer add media udp name NAME remoteip REMOTEIP

       tipc bearer enable [ domain DOMAIN ] [ priority PRIORITY ] media
               { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
               { udp name NAME localip LOCALIP [ localport LOCALPORT ] [ remoteip REMOTEIP ] [ re‐‐
               moteport REMOTEPORT ] }

       tipc bearer disable media
               { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
               { udp name NAME }

       tipc bearer set { priority PRIORITY | tolerance TOLERANCE | window WINDOW } media
               { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
               { udp name NAME }

       tipc bearer get [ priority | tolerance | window ] media
               { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
               { udp name NAME [ localip | localport | remoteip | remoteport ] }

OPTIONS
       Options (flags) that can be passed anywhere in the command chain.

       -h, --help
              Show help about last valid command. For example tipc bearer --help will show bearer
              help and tipc --help will show general help. The position of the option in the string
              is irrelevant.

DESCRIPTION
   Bearer identification
       media MEDIA
              Specifies the TIPC media type for a particular bearer to operate on.  Different media
              types have different ways of identifying a unique bearer.  For example, ib and eth
              identify a bearer with a DEVICE while udp identify a bearer with a LOCALIP and a NAME

              ib - Infiniband

              eth - Ethernet

              udp - User Datagram Protocol (UDP)



       name NAME
              Logical bearer identifier valid for bearers on udp media.


       device DEVICE
              Physical bearer device valid for bearers on eth and ib media.


   Bearer properties
       domain
              The addressing domain (region) in which a bearer will establish links and accept link
              establish requests.


       priority
              Default link priority inherited by all links subsequently established over a bearer. A
              single bearer can only host one link to a particular node. This means the default link
              priority for a bearer typically affects which bearer to use when communicating with a
              particular node in an multi bearer setup. For more info about link priority see tipc-
              link(8)


       tolerance
              Default link tolerance inherited by all links subsequently established over a bearer.
              For more info about link tolerance see tipc-link(8)


       window
              Default link window inherited by all links subsequently established over a bearer. For
              more info about the link window size see tipc-link(8)


   UDP bearer options
       localip LOCALIP
              Specify a local IP v4/v6 address for a udp bearer.


       localport LOCALPORT
              Specify the local port for a udp bearer. The default port 6118 is used if no port is
              specified.


       remoteip REMOTEIP
              Specify a remote IP for a udp bearer. If no remote IP is specified a udp bearer runs
              in multicast mode and tries to auto-discover its neighbours.  The multicast IP address
              is generated based on the TIPC network ID. If a remote IP is specified the udp bearer
              runs in point-to-point mode.

              Multiple remoteip addresses can be added via the bearer add command. Adding one or
              more unicast remoteip addresses to an existing udp bearer puts the bearer in replicast
              mode where IP multicast is emulated by sending multiple unicast messages to each con‐
              figured remoteip.  When a peer sees a TIPC discovery message from an unknown peer the
              peer address is automatically added to the remoteip (replicast) list, thus only one
              side of a link needs to be manually configured. A remoteip address cannot be added to
              a multicast bearer.


       remoteport REMOTEPORT
              Specify the remote port for a udp bearer. The default port 6118 is used if no port is
              specified.


EXIT STATUS
       Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon failure.
