Nametable format

Type: The 32-bit type field of the port name. The type field often indicates the class of service provided by a port.
Lower: The lower bound of the 32-bit instance field of the port name. The instance field is often used as as a sub-class indicator.
Upper: The upper bound of the 32-bit instance field of the port name. The instance field is often used as as a sub-class indicator. A difference in lower and upper means the socket is bound to the port name range [lower,upper]
Port Identity: The unique socket (port) identifier within the TIPC cluster. The port identity consists of a node identity followed by a socket reference number.
Publication: The publication ID is a random number used internally to represent a publication.
Scope: The publication scope specifies the visibility of a bound port name. The scope can be specified to comprise three different domains: node, cluster and zone. Applications residing within the specified scope can see and access the port using the displayed port name.

EXIT STATUS

Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon failure.
