ipv6toolkit.conf - Man Page

Configuration file for the SI6 Networks' IPv6 address monitoring daemon (ipv6mon)

Synopsis

/etc/ipv6toolkit.conf

Description

This file controls the operation of the SI6 Networks' IPv6 Toolkit . It allows the system administrator to configure parameters such as:

+ Location of the IEEE OUI database
+ Location of the service/port-numbers database

The configuration file follows the following general format:

  # Comments
  Variable1=Value1  # Comments
  Variable2=Value2

The following configuration options are currently supported:

OUI-Database

This variable specifies the location of the IEEE OUI database. If left unspecified, the IEEE OUI databased is expected to be found at "/usr/share/oui.txt". This is a stripped down version of the IEEE OUI list available at <http://standards.ieee.org/develop/regauth/oui/oui.txt>. The tool is able to process the raw file available from the IEEE site (hence the included oui.txt file can be overwritten with a freshly downloaded copy without any additional processing).

Ports-Database

This variable specifies the service/port-number database. If left unspecified, the IEEE OUI databased is expected to be found at "/usr/share/ipv6toolkit/service-names-port-numbers.csv".

Examples

The following is a sample ipv6toolkit.conf file.

# SI6 Networks IPv6 Toolkit Configuration File

OUI-Database=/usr/share/ipv6toolkit/oui.txt
Ports-Database=/usr/share/ipv6toolkit/service-names-port-numbers.csv
