NAME
       miredo-server - Teredo server for Unix

SYNOPSIS
       miredo-server [-c config_file] [-f] [-u user] [server_name]

DESCRIPTON
       Miredo-server  is  an  Unix  daemon  program  which implements a Teredo
       server as specified by the "Teredo: Tunneling  IPv6  over  UDP  through
       NATs" Internet proposed standard (RFC 4380).

       A Teredo server is required for Teredo clients to setup their IPv6 con‐
       nectivity through Teredo. A Teredo server must have two	global	static
       subsequent  IPv4 addresses. It receives packets from Teredo clients and
       Teredo relays on UDP port 3544.

OPTIONS
       -c config_file or --config config_file
	      Specify an alternate configuration file for  Miredo  instead  of
	      the default, /usr/local/etc/miredo/miredo-server.conf.

       -f or --foreground
	      Do  not  detach  from  the console. Run the program in the fore‐
	      ground.

       -h or --help
	      Display some help and exit.

       -u username or --user username
	      Override the user that the program will run as. By  default,  it
	      runs as nobody.

       -V or --version
	      Display program version and license and exit.

SECURITY
       miredo-server requires root privileges to create open a raw IPv6 socket
       that is used to emit ICMPv6 Echo Request packets. Once its  initializa‐
       tion  is	 complete,  it will setgid, chroot into an empty directory and
       ultimately setuid (see option -u), so as to decrease the system's expo‐
       sure to potential security issues.

SIGNALS
       SIGHUP Force a reload of the daemon.

       SIGINT, SIGTERM Shutdown the daemon.

       SIGUSR1, SIGUSR2 Do nothing, might be used in future versions.

FILES
       /usr/local/etc/miredo/miredo-server.conf
	      The default configuration file.

       /var/run/miredo-server.pid
	      The process-id file.
