NODESAVE(8)

NAME
nodesave - Saves NET/ROM routing information
noderest - Restores NET/ROM routing information

SYNOPSIS
nodesave <filename>
noderest <filename>

DESCRIPTION

Nodesave saves the contents of the /proc filesystem entries for the NET/ROM routing tables. The file named on the command line will contain a copy of the two files, /proc/net/nr_neigh and /proc/net/nr_nodes which may then be fed into noderest to restore the routing tables. Typically this would be used when taking a system off-air so that the NET/ROM routing may be quickly restored when the system is brought back on-line.

Noderest restores the NET/ROM routing tables based on information stored by nodesave earlier. The input data is not checked for validity and is simply reformatted and passed to nrparms as if typed manually. This command would normally be run when a system is brought back on-line and the NET/ROM routing is required to return to its previous state as stored by nodesave.

FILES
/proc/net/nr_neigh
/proc/net/nr_nodes
