|
||
|
|
This is a simplistic script replacing one option of
|
||
|
|
.B ifconfig
|
||
|
|
, namely, IP address management. It not only adds
|
||
|
|
addresses, but also carries out Duplicate Address Detection RFC-DHCP,
|
||
|
|
sends unsolicited ARP to update the caches of other hosts sharing
|
||
|
|
the interface, adds some control routes and restarts Router Discovery
|
||
|
|
when it is necessary.
