rup(1)rup(1)NAMErup - show host status of local machines (RPC version)
SYNOPSIS
[host ...]
DESCRIPTION
gives a status similar to for remote machines. It broadcasts on the
local network and displays the responses it receives. Though the list‐
ing is normally in the order responses are received, the order can be
changed by using command-line options. The broadcast process takes
about two minutes.
When host arguments are given, instead of broadcasting, only queries
the list of specified hosts.
A remote host only responds if it is running the daemon (see
rstatd(1M)).
Options

Sort the display alphabetically by host name.
Sort the display by load average.
Sort the display by up time.
WARNINGS
Broadcasting does not work through gateways; therefore, does not report
information about machines that are reachable only through gateways.
DIAGNOSTICS
The exit code of is the number of errors (eg. bad host names) encoun‐
tered; zero for success.
