ip-addrlabel − protocol address label management
ip [ OPTIONS ] addrlabel { COMMAND | help }
OPTIONS := { −V[ersion] | −s[tatistics] | −r[esolve] | −f[amily] { inet | inet6 | ipx | dnet | link } | −o[neline] }
ip addrlabel { add | del } prefix PREFIX [ dev DEV ] [ label NUMBER ]
ip addrlabel { list | flush }
IPv6 address labels are used for address selection; they are described in RFC 3484. Precedence is managed by userspace, and only the label itself is stored in the kernel.
ip addrlabel
add - add an address label
add an address label entry to the kernel.
prefix PREFIX
dev DEV
the outgoing interface.
label NUMBER
the label for the prefix. 0xffffffff is reserved.
ip addrlabel
del - delete an address label
delete an address label entry from the kernel.
Arguments: coincide with the arguments of ip
addrlabel add but the label is not required.

list the current address label entries in the kernel.
ip addrlabel

flush all address labels in the kernel. This does not
restore any default settings.
