!!DESCRIPTION |

|
|
|
23 |
__nameif__ renames network interfaces based on mac |
|
|
24 |
addresses. When no arguments are given ''/etc/mactab'' is |
|
|
25 |
read. Each line of it contains an interface name and a |
|
|
26 |
Ethernet MAC address. Comments are allowed starting with #. |
|
|
27 |
Otherwise the interfaces specified on the command line are |
|
|
28 |
processed. ''nameif'' looks for the interface with the |
|
|
29 |
given MAC address and renames it to the name |
|
|
30 |
given. |
|
|
31 |
|
|
|
32 |
|
|
|
33 |
When the ''-s'' argument is given all error messages go |
|
|
34 |
to the syslog. |
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
When the ''-c'' argument is given with a file name that |
|
|
38 |
file is read instead of /etc/mactab. |

''nameif'' should be run before the interface is up, |

otherwise it'll fail. |
