.TH HYPERVISOR_MODE 7 "Mar 27, 2014"
.\" Please adjust this date whenever revising the manpage.
.SH NAME
hypervisor_mode \- allows you to run simultaneously
many virtual router instances, and to simulate ATM, Ethernet
or Frame\(hyRelay networks.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B dynamips \-H
.I [ip_address:]tcp_port
.SH DESCRIPTION
You can connect directly to the TCP control port with telnet, or use
dynagen/dynagui that will pass commands transparently. The second method
is highly recommended.
.br
The command syntax is simple: <module> <function> [arguments...]
For example: "vm start R1" starts virtual instance named "R1".
