NAME

       npd6 - neighbor proxy daemon ipv6

SYNOPSIS

       npd6 [ -hvcdDf] [ -c configfile ] [ -l logfile ]

DESCRIPTION

       npd6  is  a  daemon  which  listens  on  nominated interfaces for IPv6 Neighbor Solicitations which match
       defined prefixes. It will answer them with an appropriate Neighbor Advertisement.

       npd6 is configured using a config file (default /etc/npd6.conf) and also has a number of cli  options  to
       enable various levels of logging, debug, etc.

       Please read the man page for the config file for much more information.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Displays short usage summary and then exits.

       -v, --version
              Displays the version of npd6 and then exits.

       -c configfile, --config configfile
              Alternate config file. Default is /etc/npd6.conf See npd6.conf(5).

       -d, --debug
              Enable debug logging - moderate.

       -D, --debug2
              Enable more debug logging - lots.

       -f, --foreground
              Run  npd6  in  the  foreground,  staying  attached  to the terminal. Default is that it daemonizes
              otherwise. Typically used for debugging, etc.

       -l logfile, --logfile logfile
              The default is that npd6 logs via syslog. This parameter tells it to log directly to the nominated
              file.

FILES

              Default configuration file.
