The command "sudo ip rule delete from ${192-168-178-2-32}" is used to delete a specific IP rule from the routing policy database in Linux.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "sudo" is a command used in Linux to execute a command with superuser (administrative) privileges. It is typically used to access and modify system-level settings.
- "ip" is a command-line utility for network configuration in Linux.
- "rule" specifies that the command is related to IP rules, which control how network packets are routed.
- "delete" is the action to remove an existing IP rule.
- "from" specifies the source IP address used in the rule being deleted.
- "${192-168-178-2-32}" represents the actual IP address range or subnet that you want to delete. In this case, it denotes the range from 192.168.178.2 to 192.168.178.32.
So, this command is deleting an IP rule related to a specific IP address range or subnet, specified as "from 192.168.178.2-32".
