NAME

   ip-token - tokenized interface identifier support

SYNOPSIS

   ip token  { COMMAND | help }

   ip token { set } TOKEN dev DEV

   ip token { get } dev DEV

   ip token { list }

DESCRIPTION

   IPv6 tokenized interface identifier support is used for assigning well-
   known host-part addresses to nodes whilst still obtaining a global
   network prefix from Router advertisements. The primary target for
   tokenized identifiers are server platforms where addresses are usually
   manually configured, rather than using DHCPv6 or SLAAC. By using
   tokenized identifiers, hosts can still determine their network prefix
   by use of SLAAC, but more readily be automatically renumbered should
   their network prefix change [1]. Tokenized IPv6 Identifiers are
   described in the draft [1]: <draft-chown-6man-tokenised-
   ipv6-identifiers-02>.

   ip token set - set an interface token
   set the interface token to the kernel. Once a token is set, it cannot
   be removed from the interface, only overwritten.

   TOKEN  the interface identifier token address.

   dev DEV
          the networking interface.

   ip token get - get the interface token from the kernel
   show a tokenized interface identifier of a particular networking
   device.  Arguments: coincide with the arguments of ip token set but the
   TOKEN must be left out.

   ip token list - list all interface tokens
   list all tokenized interface identifiers for the networking interfaces
   from the kernel.
