SYNOPSIS         top

DESCRIPTION         top

       The Transparent Inter-Process Communication (TIPC) protocol offers
       total address transparency between processes which allows
       applications in a clustered computer environment to communicate
       quickly and reliably with each other, regardless of their location
       within the cluster.
       TIPC originated at the telecommunications manufacturer Ericsson. The
       first open source version of TIPC was created in 2000 when Ericsson
       released its first Linux version of TIPC. TIPC was introduced in the
       mainline Linux kernel in 2006 and is now widely used both within and
       outside of Ericsson.

OPTIONS         top

       -h, --help
              Show help about last given command. For example tipc bearer
              --help will show bearer help and tipc --help will show general
              help. The position of the option in the string is irrelevant.

COMMANDS         top

       BEARER - Show or modify TIPC bearers
       LINK   - Show or modify TIPC links

ARGUMENTS         top

       Command arguments are described in a command specific man page and

       no arguments are given a command typically shows its help text. The
       explicit help option -h or --help can occur anywhere among the
       arguments and will show help for the last valid command given.

       Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon
       failure.
