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 ] [ re-
               moteip REMOTEIP ] [ remoteport REMOTEPORT ] }

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

       tipc bearer set { priority PRIORITY | tolerance TOLERANCE | window WIN-
               DOW } 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 estab-
              lished 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 es-
              tablished over a bearer. For more info about link tolerance see
              tipc-link(8)

       window
              Default link window inherited by all links subsequently estab-
              lished 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 speci-
              fied a udp bearer runs in multicast mode and tries to auto-dis-
              cover 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 com-
              mand. Adding one or more unicast remoteip addresses to an exist-
              ing udp bearer puts the bearer in replicast mode where IP multi-
              cast is emulated by sending multiple unicast messages to each
              configured 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.
