Title: Network/Global and Network/<service id> relationship
Hi,
I wondering if anybody can tell me when using scutil what the relationship is between
subKey [23] = State:/Network/Global/DNS
subKey [24] = State:/Network/Global/IPv4
And a Network/<Service id> e.g.
subKey [41] = State:/Network/Service/0/IPv4
As I can see there is sometimes similar information in a particular Network/<Service id> area when is Network/Global area, however from testing there doesn’t seem to always a case were Network/<Service id> has it’s /DHCP or /DNS parts (this happened to me when I setup in static IP mode, but global’s held the right info).
So I’m wondering are the global to be used when not there in a network/<service id>, or should be used as an override ? (I’m guessing this mainly used in multi-homed setups, although I don’t have a network setup where to test this.)
Thanks
Mark.
