stpinet Method
Purpose
Disables the inet instance.
Syntax
Description
If stpinet is started with a list of network interfaces specified with the -l option, then this method only stops those IFs. Otherwise, stpinet informs users of the impending demise of TCP/IP, using the wall command, and invokes the ifconfig command to mark each configured IF as down. If no network interfaces are specified, the status flag of the inet instance is set to DEFINED.
Flags
