Hello to everyone reading this. Provided i wish to determine my route(s) on my network.
which of these packages is NOT deprecated: iproute, iproute2, netstat (is deprecated). The first two I do not know. Have they all been superseded by "ss"? I am a bit lost on what is still maintained and what not. Formerly I used e.g. arp but I have read it is deprecated. Netstat too.
Thanks in advance for updating me on what to use and..why the older package were "deprecated". Especially the latter would help my understanding.>
These days, the ip command is used for much of that and replaces ifconfig and a couple of others. I suspect the reason they were depricated was to rationalize things with IPv6. Arp is still around, but is IPv4 only. IPv6 uses neighbour discovery and advertisement, both of which are part of ICMP6. Arp isn't even part of IPv4, as it predates it. _______________________________________________ openSUSE Users mailing list -- users@lists.opensuse.org To unsubscribe, email users-leave@lists.opensuse.org List Netiquette: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Mailing_list_netiquette List Archives: https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/users@lists.opensuse.org
