NAME¶
ifindex - Create nodelist index
SYNOPSIS¶
ifindex [
-h] [
-x verbosity] [
-I file]
DESCRIPTION¶
Ifindex creates a nodelist index which is used by ifcico for faster
nodelist lookups.
Depending on the OPTIONS set when compiling the program, one of 3 different
nodelist indices will be generated: a
db- a
(g)dbm- or a
dbz- version. The
dbz- type nodelist-index has some advantages
(smaller indices and faster index generation) over the other 2 types but is
currently only in
PRE-ALPHA state - you should also read the README
before using this type of nodelist-index.
OPTIONS¶
- -h
- Display a short help message.
- -x Verbosity
- Set the debug verbosity. Verbosity may be a number from 0 to 32 to
set 'on' bits from 1 to number, or a string of letters where 'a' = bit 1,
'b' = bit 2, etc. up to bit 26.
- -I File
- Use the alternate configuration file File.
