Synopsis
initsock
[-cdv]
[-C dev]
[-a family type proto dev ...]
Description
initsock initializes or updates
the in-kernel socket system's idea of
which device represents which socket family, type and protocol.
This information is read from the file /etc/netconfig (see
netconfig(4bnu)).
initsock in invoked by
init at system startup (see
init(1M)).
initsock understands the following options:
-c-
Check what would happen without making any in-kernel changes.
-d-
Delete all existing in-kernel entries.
-v-
Verbose operation.
-C dev-
Specify a control socket device that will be opened
to initialize the in-kernel table via ioctl messages.
The device should be an existing clonable STREAMS device.
The default device is /dev/ticlts.
-a family type proto dev-
Do not read configuration file but add the specified family, type, protocol,
and device. This option may be specified multiple times.
