NETREPORT(1)                                                                                                        NETREPORT(1)



NAME
       netreport - request notification of network interface changes

SYNOPSIS
       netreport [-r]

DESCRIPTION
       netreport tells the network management scripts to send a SIGIO signal to the process which called netreport when any net-
       work interface status changes occur.

OPTIONS
       -r     Remove the current request (if any) for the calling process.

NOTES
       If a program does not call netreport with the -r option before it exits, and another process is created with the same PID
       before any changes take place in interface status, it is possible that the new process will receive a spurious SIGIO.
