.
.SH DESCRIPTION
A daemon that manages and controls any number of Open vSwitch switches
on the local machine.
.PP
-The mandatory \fIdatabase\fR argument normally takes the form
-\fBunix:\fIfile\fR, where \fIfile\fR is the name of a Unix domain
-socket on which \fBovsdb\-server\fR is listening. However, all of the
-following forms are accepted:
+The \fIdatabase\fR argument specifies how \fBovs\-vswitchd\fR connects
+to \fBovsdb\-server\fR. The default is \fBunix:@RUNDIR@/db.sock\fR.
+The following forms are accepted:
.so ovsdb/remote-active.man
.so ovsdb/remote-passive.man

.SS "GENERAL COMMANDS"
.IP "\fBexit\fR"
Causes \fBovs\-vswitchd\fR to gracefully terminate.
+.IP "\fBcoverage/log\fR"
+Logs coverage counters at level warn.
.IP "\fBqos/show\fR \fIinterface\fR"
Queries the kernel for Quality of Service configuration and statistics
associated with the given \fIinterface\fR.
-.IP "\fBcfm/show\fR \fIinterface\fR"
+.IP "\fBcfm/show\fR [\fIinterface\fR]"
Displays detailed information about Connectivity Fault Management
-configured on \fIinterface\fR.
+configured on \fIinterface\fR. If \fIinterface\fR is not specified,
+then displays detailed information about all interfaces with CFM
+enabled.
+.IP "\fBstp/tcn\fR [\fIbridge\fR]"
+Forces a topology change event on \fIbridge\fR if it's running STP. This
+may cause it to send Topology Change Notifications to its peers and flush
+its MAC table.. If no \fIbridge\fR is given, forces a topology change
+event on all bridges.
.SS "BRIDGE COMMANDS"
These commands manage bridges.
+.IP "\fBfdb/flush\fR [\fIbridge\fR]"
+Flushes \fIbridge\fR MAC address learning table, or all learning tables
+if no \fIbridge\fR is given.
.IP "\fBfdb/show\fR \fIbridge\fR"
Lists each MAC address/VLAN pair learned by the specified \fIbridge\fR,
along with the port on which it was learned and the age of the entry,
.IP "\fBbond/list\fR"
Lists all of the bonds, and their slaves, on each bridge.
.
-.IP "\fBbond/show\fR \fIport\fR"
-Lists all of the bond-specific information about the given bonded
-\fIport\fR: updelay, downdelay, time until the next rebalance. Also
-lists information about each slave: whether it is enabled or disabled,
-the time to completion of an updelay or downdelay if one is in
-progress, whether it is the active slave, the MAC hashes assigned to
-the slave, and the MAC learning table entries that hash to each MAC.
-Any LACP information related to this bond may be found using the
-\fBlacp/show\fR command.
+.IP "\fBbond/show\fR [\fIport\fR]"
+Lists all of the bond-specific information (updelay, downdelay, time
+until the next rebalance) about the given bonded \fIport\fR, or all
+bonded ports if no \fIport\fR is given. Also lists information about
+each slave: whether it is enabled or disabled, the time to completion
+of an updelay or downdelay if one is in progress, whether it is the
+active slave, the hashes assigned to the slave. Any LACP information
+related to this bond may be found using the \fBlacp/show\fR command.
+.
.IP "\fBbond/migrate\fR \fIport\fR \fIhash\fR \fIslave\fR"
Only valid for SLB bonds. Assigns a given MAC hash to a new slave.
\fIport\fR specifies the bond port, \fIhash\fR the MAC hash to be
Returns the hash value which would be used for \fImac\fR with \fIvlan\fR
and \fIbasis\fR if specified.
.
-.IP "\fBlacp/show\fR \fIport\fR"
+.IP "\fBlacp/show\fR [\fIport\fR]"
Lists all of the LACP related information about the given \fIport\fR:
active or passive, aggregation key, system id, and system priority. Also
lists information about each slave: whether it is enabled or disabled,
whether it is attached or detached, port id and priority, actor
-information, and partner information.
+information, and partner information. If \fIport\fR is not specified,
+then displays detailed information about all interfaces with CFM
+enabled.
