NAME
       tipc-bearer - show or modify TIPC bearers

SYNOPSIS
       tipc bearer add media udp name NAME remoteip REMOTEIP

       tipc bearer enable [ domain DOMAIN ] [ priority PRIORITY ] media
	       { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
	       { udp name NAME localip LOCALIP [ localport LOCALPORT ] [ remoteip REMOTEIP ] [ remoteport REMOTEPORT ] }

       tipc bearer disable media
	       { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
	       { udp name NAME }

       tipc bearer set { priority PRIORITY | tolerance TOLERANCE | window WINDOW } media
	       { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
	       { udp name NAME }

       tipc bearer get [ priority | tolerance | window ] media
	       { { eth | ib } device DEVICE } |
	       { udp name NAME [ localip | localport | remoteip | remoteport ] }

OPTIONS
       Options (flags) that can be passed anywhere in the command chain.

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

DESCRIPTION
   Bearer identification
       media MEDIA
	      Specifies the TIPC media type for a particular bearer to operate on.  Different  media  types  have  different
	      ways  of identifying a unique bearer.  For example, ib and eth identify a bearer with a DEVICE while udp iden‐
	      tify a bearer with a LOCALIP and a NAME

	      ib - Infiniband

	      eth - Ethernet

	      udp - User Datagram Protocol (UDP)

       name NAME
	      Logical bearer identifier valid for bearers on udp media.

       device DEVICE
	      Physical bearer device valid for bearers on eth and ib media.

   Bearer properties
       domain
	      The addressing domain (region) in which a bearer will establish links and accept link establish requests.

       priority
	      Default link priority inherited by all links subsequently established over a bearer. A single bearer can	only
	      host  one link to a particular node. This means the default link priority for a bearer typically affects which
	      bearer to use when communicating with a particular node in an multi bearer setup. For  more  info	 about	link
	      priority see tipc-link(8)

       tolerance
	      Default link tolerance inherited by all links subsequently established over a bearer. For more info about link
	      tolerance see tipc-link(8)

       window
	      Default  link  window  inherited	by all links subsequently established over a bearer. For more info about the
	      link window size see tipc-link(8)

   UDP bearer options
       localip LOCALIP
	      Specify a local IP v4/v6 address for a udp bearer.

       localport LOCALPORT
	      Specify the local port for a udp bearer. The default port 6118 is used if no port is specified.

       remoteip REMOTEIP
	      Specify a remote IP for a udp bearer. If no remote IP is specified a udp bearer runs  in	multicast  mode	 and
	      tries to auto-discover its neighbours.  The multicast IP address is generated based on the TIPC network ID. If
	      a remote IP is specified the udp bearer runs in point-to-point mode.

	      Multiple	remoteip  addresses can be added via the bearer add command. Adding one or more unicast remoteip ad‐
	      dresses to an existing udp bearer puts the bearer in replicast mode where IP multicast is emulated by  sending
	      multiple	unicast messages to each configured remoteip.  When a peer sees a TIPC discovery message from an un‐
	      known peer the peer address is automatically added to the remoteip (replicast) list, thus only one side  of  a
	      link needs to be manually configured. A remoteip address cannot be added to a multicast bearer.

       remoteport REMOTEPORT
	      Specify the remote port for a udp bearer. The default port 6118 is used if no port is specified.

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