rpslcheck(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual rpslcheck(1)

rpslcheck - an RPSL syntax checker

rpslcheck [flags]

rpslcheck syntax-checks an RPSL object. If the object passes rpslcheck's syntax check it will not cause errors to any of the tools in IRRToolSet, such as rtconfig. However, the syntax constraints of a particular IRR can differ from the ones in RPSL.

The input can be supplied via "-as <ASnum>" option (only AS-numbers). If no option is specified the object is expected on standard input. The input can contain multiple objects.

-help
Print summary of command-line options and exit.
-T [whois_query | whois_response | input | all]
Trace the argument. Useful for debugging.
-D <integer>
Print debugging messages of debug channel <integer> (if compiled with ENABLE_DEBUG defined).
-version
Print the version number and quit.
-h <host-name>
Establish a whois connection to host <host-name>. The default is whois.radb.net
-p <port-no>
Establish a whois connection to port <port-no>. The default is 43.
-protocol <protocol>
Use the <protocol> to connect to the IRR server. <protocol> can be irrd(rawhoisd) or ripe(bird). The default is irrd.
-s <source-list>
Consider the sources specified in the comma separated <source-list>. If an object is defined in multiple sources in <source-list>, rpslcheck uses the definition first encountered in <source-list> from left to right.
-rusage
Print resource usage upon completion.
-ignore_errors
Do not print error and warning messages due to communication to the database server or parsing policy objects.
-report_errors
Print error and warning messages due to communication to the database server or parsing policy objects.

-as <as-no>
Syntax check the aut-num object for <as-no>. If this option is not supplied, stdin is parsed.
-echo
Print the aut-num object before matching.

IRR_HOST
Specifies the IRR host to connect.
IRR_PORT
Specifies the IRR port number to connect.
IRR_SOURCES
Specifies the source list (comma separated) to consider.

Command line options take precedence over environment variables.
