Show help about last valid command. For example tipc nametable --help will show nametable help and tipc --help will show general help. The position of the option in the string is irrelevant.

Description

The nametable shows TIPC publication information.

Nametable format

Type

The 32-bit type field of the port name. The type field often indicates the class of service provided by a port.

Lower

The lower bound of the 32-bit instance field of the port name. The instance field is often used as as a sub-class indicator.

Upper

The upper bound of the 32-bit instance field of the port name. The instance field is often used as as a sub-class indicator. A difference in lower and upper means the socket is bound to the port name range [lower,upper]

Port Identity

The unique socket (port) identifier within the TIPC cluster. The port identity consists of a node identity followed by a socket reference number.

Publication

The publication ID is a random number used internally to represent a publication.

Scope

The publication scope specifies the visibility of a bound port name. The scope can be specified to comprise three different domains: node, cluster and zone. Applications residing within the specified scope can see and access the port using the displayed port name.

Exit Status

Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon failure.
