Managing Network Services
You can use networksetup to create or rename network services, turn them on or off,
remove them, and change the order in which they’re contacted. This application is also
useful for displaying the names of hardware ports:
m To display all hardware port names, type “networksetup -listallhardwareports”.
m To create a new network service on a port, type “networksetup -createnetworkservice
<new network service> <hardware port>”.
m To duplicate an existing network service, type “networksetup -duplicatenetworkservice
<network service> <new network service name>”.
m To rename a network service, type “networksetup -renamenetworkservice <network
service > <new network service name>”.
m To delete a network service, type “networksetup -removenetworkservice <network
service>”. If there is only one network service for a port, you can’t delete it using this
option. Instead, use -setnetworkserviceenabled to turn a network service off.
m To turn a network service on, type “networksetup -setnetworkserviceenabled <network
service> on”.
m To turn AppleTalk on, type “networksetup -setappletalk <network service> on”.
m To turn passive FTP on, type “networksetup -setpassiveftp <network service> on”.
m To set the order in which network services are contacted on a particular port, type
“networksetup -ordernetworkservices <service1> <service2> [...]”.
Designating Proxy Servers
You can use networksetup to designate servers to be used as proxies for some services:
m To set up proxy servers, use these networksetup commands:
-setftpproxy <network service> <domain> <port number>
-setwebproxy <network service> <domain> <port number>
-setsecurewebproxy <network service> <domain> <port number>
-setstreamingproxy <network service> <domain> <port number>
-setgopherproxy <network service> <domain> <port number>
-setsocksfirewallproxy <network service> <domain> <port number>
