-CONFIG FILE PARAMETERS
-
-There are a number of configuration parameters that control the behavior of the
-AMANDA programs. All have default values, so you need not specify the parameter
-in amanda.conf if the default is suitable.
-Lines starting with # are ignored, as are blank lines. Comments may be placed
-on a line with a directive by starting the comment with a #. The remainder of
-the line is ignored.
-Keywords are case insensitive, i.e. mailto and MailTo are treated the same.
-Integer arguments may have one of the following (case insensitive) suffixes,
-some of which have a multiplier effect:
-
-
- b byte bytes
- Some number of bytes.
-
- bps
- Some number of bytes per second.
-
- k kb kbyte kbytes kilobyte kilobytes
- Some number of kilobytes (bytes*1024).
-
- kps kbps
- Some number of kilobytes per second (bytes*1024).
-
- m mb meg mbyte mbytes megabyte megabytes
- Some number of megabytes (bytes*1024*1024).
-
- mps mbps
- Some number of megabytes per second (bytes*1024*1024).
-
- g gb gbyte gbytes gigabyte gigabytes
- Some number of gigabytes (bytes*1024*1024*1024).
-
- tape tapes
- Some number of tapes.
-
- day days
- Some number of days.
-
- week weeks
- Some number of weeks (days*7).
-
- Note
-
- The value inf may be used in most places where an integer is expected to
- mean an infinite amount.
- Boolean arguments may have any of the values y, yes, t, true or on to
- indicate a true state, or n, no, f, false or off to indicate a false
- state. If no argument is given, true is assumed.
-
-
-
- org string
- Default: daily. A descriptive name for the configuration. This string
- appears in the Subject line of mail reports. Each AMANDA configuration
- should have a different string to keep mail reports distinct.
-
- mailto string
- Default: operators. A space separated list of recipients for mail
- reports.
-
- dumpcycle int
- Default: 10 days. The number of days in the backup cycle. Each disk will
- get a full backup at least this often. Setting this to zero tries to do a
- full backup each run.
-
- Note
-
- This parameter may also be set in a specific dumptype (see below). This
- value sets the default for all dumptypes so must appear in amanda.conf
- before any dumptypes are defined.
-
- runspercycle int
- Default: same as dumpcycle. The number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days.
- A value of 0 means the same value as dumpcycle. A value of -1 means guess
- the number of runs from the tapelist file, which is the number of tapes
- used in the last dumpcycle days / runtapes.
-
- tapecycle int
- Default: 15 tapes. Typically tapes are used by AMANDA in an ordered
- rotation. The tapecycle parameter defines the size of that rotation. The
- number of tapes in rotation must be larger than the number of tapes
- required for a complete dump cycle (see the dumpcycle parameter).
- This is calculated by multiplying the number of amdump runs per dump
- cycle (runspercycle parameter) times the number of tapes used per run
- (runtapes parameter). Typically two to four times this calculated number
- of tapes are in rotation. While AMANDA is always willing to use a new
- tape in its rotation, it refuses to reuse a tape until at least
- 'tapecycle -1' number of other tapes have been used.
- It is considered good administrative practice to set the tapecycle
- parameter slightly lower than the actual number of tapes in rotation.
- This allows the administrator to more easily cope with damaged or
- misplaced tapes or schedule adjustments that call for slight adjustments
- in the rotation order.
-
-
-
- dumpuser string
- Default: amanda. The login name AMANDA uses to run the backups. The
- backup client hosts must allow access from the tape server host as this
- user via .rhosts or .amandahosts, depending on how the AMANDA software
- was built.
-
- printer string
- Printer to use when doing tape labels. See the lbl-templ tapetype option.
-
- tapedev string
- Default: /dev/nst0. The path name of the non-rewinding tape device. Non-
- rewinding tape device names often have an 'n' in the name, e.g. /dev/rmt/
- 0mn, however this is operating system specific and you should consult
- that documentation for detailed naming information.
- If a tape changer is configured (see the tpchanger option), this option
- might not be used.
- If the null output driver is selected (see the OUTPUT_DRIVERS section
- later for more information), programs such as amdump will run normally
- but all images will be thrown away. This should only be used for
- debugging and testing, and probably only with the record option set to
- no.
-
- rawtapedev string
- Default: /dev/null. The path name of the raw tape device. This is only
- used if AMANDA is compiled for Linux machines with floppy tapes and is
- needed for QIC volume table operations.
-
- tpchanger string
- Default: none. The name of the tape changer. If a tape changer is not
- configured, this option is not used and should be commented out of the
- configuration file.
- If a tape changer is configured, choose one of the changer scripts (e.g.
- chg-scsi) and enter that here.
-
-
-
- changerdev string
- Default: /dev/null. A tape changer configuration parameter. Usage depends
- on the particular changer defined with the tpchanger option.
-
- changerfile string
- Default: /usr/adm/amanda/log/changer-status. A tape changer configuration
- parameter. Usage depends on the particular changer defined with the
- tpchanger option.
-
- runtapes int
- Default: 1. The maximum number of tapes used in a single run. If a tape
- changer is not configured, this option is not used and should be
- commented out of the configuration file.
- If a tape changer is configured, this may be set larger than one to let
- AMANDA write to more than one tape.
- Note that this is an upper bound on the number of tapes, and AMANDA may
- use less.
- Also note that as of this release, AMANDA does not support true tape
- overflow. When it reaches the end of one tape, the backup image AMANDA
- was processing starts over again on the next tape.
-
-
-
- maxdumpsize int
- Default: runtapes*tape_length. Maximum number of bytes the planner will
- schedule for a run.
-
- taperalgo [first|firstfit|largest|largestfit|smallest|last]
- Default: first. The algorithm used to choose which dump image to send to
- the taper.
-
-
- first
- First in, first out.
-
- firstfit
- The first dump image that will fit on the current tape.
-
- largest
- The largest dump image.
-
- largestfit
- The largest dump image that will fit on the current tape.
-
- smallest
- The smallest dump image.
-
- last
- Last in, first out.
-
-
- labelstr string
- Default: .*. The tape label constraint regular expression. All tape
- labels generated (see amlabel(8)) and used by this configuration must
- match the regular expression. If multiple configurations are run from the
- same tape server host, it is helpful to set their labels to different
- strings (for example, "DAILY[0-9][0-9]*" vs. "ARCHIVE[0-9][0-9]*") to
- avoid overwriting each other's tapes.
-
- tapetype string
- Default: EXABYTE. The type of tape drive associated with tapedev or
- tpchanger. This refers to one of the defined tapetypes in the config file
- (see below), which specify various tape parameters, like the length,
- filemark size, and speed of the tape media and device.
-
- ctimeout int
- Default: 30 seconds. Maximum amount of time that amcheck will wait for
- each client host.
-
- dtimeout int
- Default: 1800 seconds. Amount of idle time per disk on a given client
- that a dumper running from within amdump will wait before it fails with a
- data timeout error.
-
- etimeout int
- Default: 300 seconds. Amount of time per disk on a given client that the
- planner step of amdump will wait to get the dump size estimates. For
- instance, with the default of 300 seconds and four disks on client A,
- planner will wait up to 20 minutes for that machine. A negative value
- will be interpreted as a total amount of time to wait per client instead
- of per disk.
-
- netusage int
- Default: 300 Kbps. The maximum network bandwidth allocated to AMANDA, in
- Kbytes per second. See also the interface section.
-
- inparallel int
- Default: 10. The maximum number of backups that AMANDA will attempt to
- run in parallel. AMANDA will stay within the constraints of network
- bandwidth and holding disk space available, so it doesn't hurt to set
- this number a bit high. Some contention can occur with larger numbers of
- backups, but this effect is relatively small on most systems.
-
- displayunit "k|m|g|t"
- Default: "k". The unit used to print many numbers, k=kilo, m=mega,
- g=giga, t=tera.
-
- dumporder string
- Default: tttTTTTTTT. The priority order of each dumper:
-
- * s: smallest size
- * S: largest size
- * t: smallest time
- * T: largest time
- * b: smallest bandwidth
- * B: largest bandwidth
-
-
-
-
- maxdumps int
- Default: 1. The maximum number of backups from a single host that AMANDA
- will attempt to run in parallel. See also the inparallel option.
- Note that this parameter may also be set in a specific dumptype (see
- below). This value sets the default for all dumptypes so must appear in
- amanda.conf before any dumptypes are defined.
-
-
-
- bumpsize int
- Default: 10 Mbytes. The minimum savings required to trigger an automatic
- bump from one incremental level to the next. If AMANDA determines that
- the next higher backup level will be this much smaller than the current
- level, it will do the next level. See also the bumpmult option.
-
- bumpmult float
- Default: 1.5. The bump size multiplier. AMANDA multiplies bumpsize by
- this factor for each level. This prevents active filesystems from bumping
- too much by making it harder to bump to the next level. For example, with
- the default bumpsize and bumpmult set to 2.0, the bump threshold will be
- 10 Mbytes for level one, 20 Mbytes for level two, 40 Mbytes for level
- three, and so on.
-
- bumpdays int
- Default: 2 days. To insure redundancy in the dumps, AMANDA keeps
- filesystems at the same incremental level for at least bumpdays days,
- even if the other bump threshold criteria are met.
-
- diskfile string
- Default: disklist. The file name for the disklist file holding client
- hosts, disks and other client dumping information.
-
- infofile string
- Default: /usr/adm/amanda/curinfo. The file or directory name for the
- historical information database. If AMANDA was configured to use DBM
- databases, this is the base file name for them. If it was configured to
- use text formated databases (the default), this is the base directory and
- within here will be a directory per client, then a directory per disk,
- then a text file of data.
-
- logdir string
- Default: /usr/adm/amanda. The directory for the amdump and log files.
-
- indexdir string
- Default /usr/adm/amanda/index. The directory where index files (backup
- image catalogues) are stored. Index files are only generated for
- filesystems whose dumptype has the index option enabled.
-
- tapelist string
- Default: tapelist. The file name for the active tapelist file. AMANDA
- maintains this file with information about the active set of tapes.
-
- tapebufs int
- Default: 20. The number of buffers used by the taper process run by
- amdump and amflush to hold data as it is read from the network or disk
- before it is written to tape. Each buffer is a little larger than 32
- KBytes and is held in a shared memory region.
-
- reserve number
- Default: 100. The part of holding-disk space that should be reserved for
- incremental backups if no tape is available, expressed as a percentage of
- the available holding-disk space (0-100). By default, when there is no
- tape to write to, degraded mode (incremental) backups will be performed
- to the holding disk. If full backups should also be allowed in this case,
- the amount of holding disk space reserved for incrementals should be
- lowered.
-
- autoflush bool
- Default: off. Whether an amdump run will flush the dump already on
- holding disk to tape.
-
- amrecover_do_fsf bool
- Default: off. Amrecover will call amrestore with the -f flag for faster
- positioning of the tape.
-
- amrecover_check_label bool
- Default: off. Amrecover will call amrestore with the -l flag to check the
- label.
-
- amrecover_changer string
- Default: ''. Amrecover will use the changer if you use 'settape <string>'
- and that string is the same as the amrecover_changer setting.
-
- columnspec string
- Defines the width of columns amreport should use. String is a comma (',')
- separated list of triples. Each triple consists of three parts which are
- separated by a equal sign ('=') and a colon (':') (see the example).
- These three parts specify:
-
- * the name of the column, which may be:
-
- o Compress (compression ratio)
- o Disk (client disk name)
- o DumpRate (dump rate in KBytes/sec)
- o DumpTime (total dump time in hours:minutes)
- o HostName (client host name)
- o Level (dump level)
- o OrigKB (original image size in KBytes)
- o OutKB (output image size in KBytes)
- o TapeRate (tape writing rate in KBytes/sec)
- o TapeTime (total tape time in hours:minutes)
-
- * the amount of space to display before the column (used to get
- whitespace between columns).
- * the width of the column itself. If set to a negative value, the width
- will be calculated on demand to fit the largest entry in this column.
-
- Here is an example:
-
- columnspec "Disk=1:18,HostName=0:10,OutKB=1:7"
-
- The above will display the disk information in 18 characters and put one
- space before it. The hostname column will be 10 characters wide with no
- space to the left. The output KBytes column is seven characters wide with
- one space before it.
-
-
-
- includefile string
- Default: none. The name of an AMANDA configuration file to include within
- the current file. Useful for sharing dumptypes, tapetypes and interface
- definitions among several configurations.
-
-
-HOLDINGDISK SECTION
-
-The amanda.conf file may define one or more holding disks used as buffers to
-hold backup images before they are written to tape. The syntax is:
-
- holdingdisk name {
- holdingdisk-option holdingdisk-value
- ...
- }
-
-Name is a logical name for this holding disk.
-The options and values are:
-
-
- comment string
- Default: none. A comment string describing this holding disk.
-
- directory disk
- Default: /dumps/amanda. The path to this holding area.
-
- use int
- Default: 0 Gb. Amount of space that can be used in this holding disk
- area. If the value is zero, all available space on the file system is
- used. If the value is negative, AMANDA will use all available space minus
- that value.
-
- chunksize int
- Default: 1 Gb. Holding disk chunk size. Dumps larger than the specified
- size will be stored in multiple holding disk files. The size of each
- chunk will not exceed the specified value. However, even though dump
- images are split in the holding disk, they are concatenated as they are
- written to tape, so each dump image still corresponds to a single
- continuous tape section.
- If 0 is specified, AMANDA will create holding disk chunks as large as (
- (INT_MAX/1024)-64) Kbytes.
- Each holding disk chunk includes a 32 Kbyte header, so the minimum chunk
- size is 64 Kbytes (but that would be really silly).
- Operating systems that are limited to a maximum file size of 2 Gbytes
- actually cannot handle files that large. They must be at least one byte
- less than 2 Gbytes. Since AMANDA works with 32 Kbyte blocks, and to
- handle the final read at the end of the chunk, the chunk size should be
- at least 64 Kbytes (2 * 32 Kbytes) smaller than the maximum file size,
- e.g. 2047 Mbytes.
-
-
-DUMPTYPE SECTION
-
-The amanda.conf file may define multiple sets of backup options and refer to
-them by name from the disklist file. For instance, one set of options might be
-defined for file systems that can benefit from high compression, another set
-that does not compress well, another set for file systems that should always
-get a full backup and so on.
-A set of backup options are entered in a dumptype section, which looks like
-this:
-
- define dumptype name {
- dumptype-option dumptype-value
- ...
- }
-
-Name is the name of this set of backup options. It is referenced from the
-disklist file.
-Some of the options in a dumptype section are the same as those in the main
-part of amanda.conf. The main option value is used to set the default for all
-dumptype sections. For instance, setting dumpcycle to 50 in the main part of
-the config file causes all following dumptype sections to start with that
-value, but the value may be changed on a section by section basis. Changes to
-variables in the main part of the config file must be done before (earlier in
-the file) any dumptypes are defined.
-The dumptype options and values are:
-
-
- auth string
- Default: bsd. Type of authorization to perform between tape server and
- backup client hosts. May be krb4 to use Kerberos-IV authorization.
-
- comment string
- Default: none. A comment string describing this set of backup options.
-
- comprate float [, float ]
- Default: 0.50, 0.50. The expected full and incremental compression factor
- for dumps. It is only used if AMANDA does not have any history
- information on compression rates for a filesystem, so should not usually
- need to be set. However, it may be useful for the first time a very large
- filesystem that compresses very little is backed up.
-
- compress [client|server] string
- Default: client fast. If AMANDA does compression of the backup images, it
- can do so either on the backup client host before it crosses the network
- or on the tape server host as it goes from the network into the holding
- disk or to tape. Which place to do compression (if at all) depends on how
- well the dump image usually compresses, the speed and load on the client
- or server, network capacity, holding disk capacity, availability of tape
- hardware compression, etc.
- For either type of compression, AMANDA also allows the selection of two
- styles of compression. Best is the best compression available, often at
- the expense of CPU overhead. Fast is often not as good a compression as
- best, but usually less CPU overhead.
- So the compress options line may be one of:
-
- * compress none
- * compress [client] fast
- * compress [client] best
- * compress server fast
- * compress server best
-
- Note that some tape devices do compression and this option has nothing to
- do with whether that is used. If hardware compression is used (usually
- via a particular tape device name or mt option), AMANDA (software)
- compression should be disabled.
-
- dumpcycle int
- Default: 10 days. The number of days in the backup cycle. Each disk using
- this set of options will get a full backup at least this often. Setting
- this to zero tries to do a full backup each run.
-
- exclude [ list|file ][[optional][ append ][ string ]+]
- Default: file. There are two exclude lists, exclude file and exclude
- list. With exclude file , the string is a GNU-tar exclude expression.
- With exclude list , the string is a file name on the client containing
- GNU-tar exclude expressions.
- All exclude expressions are concatenated in one file and passed to GNU-
- tar as an --exclude-from argument.
- With the append keyword, the string is appended to the current list,
- without it, the string overwrites the list.
- If optional is specified for exclude list, then amcheck will not complain
- if the file doesn't exist or is not readable.
- For exclude list, if the file name is relative, the disk name being
- backed up is prepended. So if this is entered:
-
- exclude list ".amanda.excludes"
-
- the actual file used would be /var/.amanda.excludes for a backup of /var,
- /usr/local/.amanda.excludes for a backup of /usr/local, and so on.
-
- holdingdisk boolean
- Default: yes. Whether a holding disk should be used for these backups or
- whether they should go directly to tape. If the holding disk is a portion
- of another file system that AMANDA is backing up, that file system should
- refer to a dumptype with holdingdisk set to no to avoid backing up the
- holding disk into itself.
-
- ignore boolean
- Default: no. Whether disks associated with this backup type should be
- backed up or not. This option is useful when the disklist file is shared
- among several configurations, some of which should not back up all the
- listed file systems.
-
- include [ list|file ][[optional][ append ][ string ]+]
- Default: file ".". There are two include lists, include file and include
- list. With include file , the string is a glob expression. With include
- list , the string is a file name on the client containing glob
- expressions.
- All include expressions are expanded by AMANDA, concatenated in one file
- and passed to GNU-tar as a --files-from argument. They must start with
- "./" and contain no other "/".
- With the append keyword, the string is appended to the current list,
- without it, the string overwrites the list.
- If optional is specified for include list, then amcheck will not complain
- if the file doesn't exist or is not readable.
- For include list, If the file name is relative, the disk name being
- backed up is prepended.
-
- index boolean
- Default: no. Whether an index (catalogue) of the backup should be
- generated and saved in indexdir. These catalogues are used by the
- amrecover utility.
-
- kencrypt boolean
- Default: no. Whether the backup image should be encrypted by Kerberos as
- it is sent across the network from the backup client host to the tape
- server host.
-
- maxdumps int
- Default: 1. The maximum number of backups from a single host that AMANDA
- will attempt to run in parallel. See also the main section parameter
- inparallel.
-
- maxpromoteday int
- Default: 10000. The maximum number of day for a promotion, set it 0 if
- you don't want promotion, set it to 1 or 2 if your disks get
- overpromoted.
-
- priority string
- Default: medium. When there is no tape to write to, AMANDA will do
- incremental backups in priority order to the holding disk. The priority
- may be high (2). medium (1), low (0) or a number of your choice.
-
- program string
- Default: DUMP. The type of backup to perform. Valid values are DUMP for
- the native operating system backup program, and GNUTAR to use GNU-tar or
- to do PC backups using Samba.
-
- record boolean
- Default: yes. Whether to ask the backup program to update its database
- (e.g. /etc/dumpdates for DUMP or /usr/local/var/amanda/gnutar-lists for
- GNUTAR) of time stamps. This is normally enabled for daily backups and
- turned off for periodic archival runs.
-
- skip-full boolean
- Default: no. If true and planner has scheduled a full backup, these disks
- will be skipped, and full backups should be run off-line on these days.
- It was reported that AMANDA only schedules level 1 incrementals in this
- configuration; this is probably a bug.
-
- skip-incr boolean
- Default: no. If true and planner has scheduled an incremental backup,
- these disks will be skipped.
-
- starttime int
- Default: none. Backups will not start until after this time of day. The
- value should be hh*100+mm, e.g. 6:30PM (18:30) would be entered as 1830.
-
- strategy string
- Default: standard. Strategy to use when planning what level of backup to
- run next. Values are:
-
-The following dumptype entries are predefined by AMANDA:
-
- define dumptype no-compress {
- compress none
- }
- define dumptype compress-fast {
- compress client fast
- }
- define dumptype compress-best {
- compress client best
- }
- define dumptype srvcompress {
- compress server fast
- }
- define dumptype bsd-auth {
- auth bsd
- }
- define dumptype krb4-auth {
- auth krb4
- }
- define dumptype no-record {
- record no
- }
- define dumptype no-hold {
- holdingdisk no
- }
- define dumptype no-full {
- skip-full yes
- }
-
-In addition to options in a dumptype section, one or more other dumptype names
-may be entered, which make this dumptype inherit options from other previously
-defined dumptypes. For instance, two sections might be the same except for the
-record option:
-
- define dumptype normal {
- comment "Normal backup, no compression, do indexing"
- no-compress
- index yes
- maxdumps 2
- }
- define dumptype testing {
- comment "Test backup, no compression, do indexing, no recording"
- normal
- record no
- }
-
-AMANDA provides a dumptype named global in the sample amanda.conf file that all
-dumptypes should reference. This provides an easy place to make changes that
-will affect every dumptype.
-
-TAPETYPE SECTION
-
-The amanda.conf file may define multiple types of tape media and devices. The
-information is entered in a tapetype section, which looks like this in the
-config file:
-
- define tapetype name {
- tapetype-option tapetype-value
- ...
- }
-
-Name is the name of this type of tape medium/device. It is referenced from the
-tapetype option in the main part of the config file.
-The tapetype options and values are:
-
-
- comment string
- Default: none. A comment string describing this set of tape information.
-
- filemark int
- Default: 1000 bytes. How large a file mark (tape mark) is, measured in
- bytes. If the size is only known in some linear measurement (e.g.
- inches), convert it to bytes using the device density.
-
- length int
- Default: 2000 kbytes. How much data will fit on a tape.
- Note that this value is only used by AMANDA to schedule which backups
- will be run. Once the backups start, AMANDA will continue to write to a
- tape until it gets an error, regardless of what value is entered for
- length (but see the OUTPUT_DRIVERS section later for exceptions).
-
- blocksize int
- Default: 32. How much data will be written in each tape record expressed
- in KiloBytes. The tape record size (= blocksize) can not be reduced below
- the default 32 KBytes. The parameter blocksize can only be raised if
- AMANDA was compiled with the configure option --with-maxtapeblocksize=N
- set with "N" greater than 32 during configure.
-
- file-pad boolean
- Default: true. If true, every record, including the last one in the file,
- will have the same length. This matches the way AMANDA wrote tapes prior
- to the availability of this parameter. It may also be useful on devices
- that only support a fixed blocksize.
- Note that the last record on the tape probably includes trailing null
- byte padding, which will be passed back to gzip, compress or the restore
- program. Most programs just ignore this (although possibly with a
- warning).
- If this parameter is false, the last record in a file may be shorter than
- the block size. The file will contain the same amount of data the dump
- program generated, without trailing null byte padding. When read, the
- same amount of data that was written will be returned.
-
- speed int
- Default: 200 bps. How fast the drive will accept data, in bytes per
- second. This parameter is NOT currently used by AMANDA.
-
- lbl-templ string
- A PostScript template file used by amreport to generate labels. Several
- sample files are provided with the AMANDA sources in the example
- directory. See the amreport(8) man page for more information.
-
-In addition to options, another tapetype name may be entered, which makes this
-tapetype inherit options from another tapetype. For instance, the only
-difference between a DLT4000 tape drive using Compact-III tapes and one using
-Compact-IV tapes is the length of the tape. So they could be entered as:
-
- define tapetype DLT4000-III {
- comment "DLT4000 tape drives with Compact-III tapes"
- length 12500 mbytes # 10 Gig tapes with some compression
- filemark 2000 kbytes
- speed 1536 kps
- }
- define tapetype DLT4000-IV {
- DLT4000-III
- comment "DLT4000 tape drives with Compact-IV tapes"
- length 25000 mbytes # 20 Gig tapes with some compression
- }

-INTERFACE SECTION
-
-The amanda.conf file may define multiple types of network interfaces. The
-information is entered in an interface section, which looks like this:
-
- define interface name {
- interface-option interface-value
- ...
- }
-
-name is the name of this type of network interface. It is referenced from the
-disklist file.
-Note that these sections define network interface characteristics, not the
-actual interface that will be used. Nor do they impose limits on the bandwidth
-that will actually be taken up by AMANDA. AMANDA computes the estimated
-bandwidth each file system backup will take based on the estimated size and
-time, then compares that plus any other running backups with the limit as
-another of the criteria when deciding whether to start the backup. Once a
-backup starts, AMANDA will use as much of the network as it can leaving
-throttling up to the operating system and network hardware.
-The interface options and values are:
-
-
- comment string
- Default: none. A comment string describing this set of network
- information.
-
- use int
- Default: 300 Kbps. The speed of the interface in Kbytes per second.
-
-In addition to options, another interface name may be entered, which makes this
-interface inherit options from another interface. At the moment, this is of
-little use.
