[skip] Please read ngctl(8) manual page carefully. There are other ways. First, you may move all arguments to ngctl from command line to a file and run ngctl -f filename. Second, as for many other utilities, you can use dash (-) instead of filename to make ngctl read its arguments from standard input, e.g. this is the same as "ngctl ls": # echo ls | ngctl -f - There are 9 total nodes: Name: em0 Type: ether ID: 00000001 Num hooks: 0 Then, for shell script, you can use << such as: #!/bin/sh ngctl -f - << EOF msg em1-bpf: setprogram $program EOF All these methods impose no limits on size of such control messages. However, there is loader tunnable net.graph.maxdgram that imposes another limit on size of binary representation of control message that ngctl passes to a kernel and you may need to increase it at some point. I increase it upto 8 megabytes for my purposes. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
