# nodesave(8)

Saves NET/ROM routing information

## NAME

nodesave - Saves NET/ROM routing information

## SYNOPSIS

**nodesave \[-p path\] \[-v\] \[filename\]**

## DESCRIPTION

**Nodesave** saves the contents of the /proc filesystem entries for the NET/ROM routing tables. The output of the program is in the form of a Bourne shell script that calls [nrparms(8)](/nrparms/8.md) to recreate the NET/ROM routing information. If no filename is given on the command line, the program writes the script to stdout.

Typically **nodesave** would be used when taking a system off-air so that the NET/ROM routing may be quickly restored when the system is brought back on-line.

## OPTIONS

- **-p path**

  Set the path to the nrparms binary. This only affects the output of the program. Default is /usr/sbin.

- **-v**

  Display the version.

## FILES

```
/proc/net/nr_neigh
/proc/net/nr_nodes
```

## SEE ALSO

[**netrom**(4)](/netrom/4.md), [**netromd**(8)](/netromd/8.md), [**nrparms**(8)](/nrparms/8.md).
