The iproute2 toolkit (ip, ss, bridge, tc) has a dense, hard-to-remember syntax with dozens of object types, selectors, and value formats. This Skill provides structured reference material so you can construct correct iproute2 commands without digging through man pages.
Ask the AI to show the correct syntax for adding an IP address with a specific scope and lifetime using the ip command.

Use ip address add with a PREFIX like 192.168.1.1/24 followed by dev and the interface name. Optional keywords include broadcast, label, scope (host, link, global), lifetime values, and flags such as nodad or noprefixroute.
The ip command supports objects including address, link, route, rule, neighbour, tunnel, xfrm, netns, maddress, mroute, mptcp, l2tp, vrf, tuntap, nexthop, ntable, token, tcp_metrics, ioam, fou, macsec, netconf, sr, stats, and monitor.
Valid NUD states are permanent, noarp, reachable, stale, none, incomplete, delay, probe, and failed. These states describe the reachability lifecycle of ARP and NDISC cache entries and can be used for filtering with show or flush.
Use ip rule add with selectors such as from, to, fwmark, iif, oif, ipproto, sport, or dport, then an action like table, nat, or goto. Selectors match packets while actions determine which routing table is consulted.
Supported tunnel modes are ipip, gre, sit, isatap, vti, ip6ip6, ipip6, ip6gre, vti6, and any. Each mode is set with the mode keyword alongside remote and local endpoint addresses, keys, TTL, and checksum options.
Yes, the -j or -json global option produces JSON output, and -p or -pretty pretty-prints it. Other global options include -brief for tabular output, -oneline for single-line records, and -color for colored output.
