Using the ndd Utility in Non-Interactive Mode

This section describes how to modify and to display parameter values.

  1. To modify a parameter value, use the -set option.

    If you invoke the ndd utility with the -set option, the utility passes value, which must be specified down to the named /dev/qfe driver instance, and assigns it to the parameter:


    # ndd -set /dev/qfe parameter value
    

  1. To display the value of a parameter, specify the parameter name (and omit the value).

    When you omit the -set option, a query operation is assumed and the utility queries the named driver instance, retrieves the value associated with the specified parameter, and prints it:


    # ndd /dev/qfe parameter
