+\fBvde_tunctl\fR [\fB-f\fP \fItun-clone-device\fR] \fB-d\fP \fIdevice-name\fR
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This manual page documents briefly the
+\fBvde_tunctl\fR command.
+.PP
+This manual page was written for the \fBDebian GNU/Linux\fP distribution
+because the original program does not have a manual page.
+Instead, it has documentation in HTML format; see below.
+.PP
+\fBvde_tunctl\fR allows the host sysadmin to
+preconfigure a TUN/TAP device for use by a particular user. That
+user may open and use the device, but may not change any aspects
+of the host side of the interface.
+.SH "USAGE"
+.PP
+To create an interface for use by a particular user, invoke
+vde_tunctl without the \-d option:
+.PP
+.nf
+#
+.ft B
+vde_tunctl \-u someuser
+.ft
+Set 'tap0' persistent and owned by 'someuser'
+
+.fi
+.PP
+Then, configure the interface as normal:
+.PP
+.nf
+#
+.ft B
+ifconfig tap0 192.168.0.254 up
+.ft
+#
+.ft B
+route add \-host 192.168.0.253 dev tap0
+.ft
+#
+.ft B
+bash \-c 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/tap0/proxy_arp'
+.ft
+#
+.ft B
+arp \-Ds 192.168.0.253 eth0 pub
+.ft
+.fi
+.PP
+To delete the interface, use the \-d option:
+.PP
+.nf
+#
+.ft B
+vde_tunctl \-d tap0
+.ft
+Set 'tap0' nonpersistent
+
+.fi
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.PP
+vde_switch(1)
+.SH "AUTHOR"
+.PP
+tunctl was written by Jeff Dike <jdike at karaya.com>, vde_tunctl is based on tunctl
+.PP
+This manual page was written by Matt Zimmerman mdz at debian.org for
+the \fBDebian GNU/Linux\fP system, based on examples from Jeff Dike and
+shamelessly copied and adapted for vde_tunctl by Filippo Giunchedi filippo at debian.org
