Description Renaud Métrich 2019-12-05 08:54:26 UTC

Description of problem:

The "vrf" command is not described in main ip(8) manpage.
I would expect a brief description under "IP - COMMAND SYNTAX" section  and a link to ip-vrf(8) in "SEE ALSO" section.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

iproute-4.18.0-15.el8

Comment 2 Andrea Claudi 2020-02-27 16:49:09 UTC

Patch submitted upstream: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1245938/

Comment 4 Andrea Claudi 2020-03-02 17:00:13 UTC

This is fixed upstream with commit 229bb886a3c44 ("man: ip.8: Add missing vrf subcommand description")
