<dt><code>--unixctl=<var>socket</var></code></dt>
<dd>
Sets the name of the control socket on which
<code><var>program</var></code> listens for runtime management commands
(see <var>RUNTIME MANAGEMENT COMMANDS,</var> below). If <var>socket</var>
does not begin with <code>/</code>, it is interpreted as relative to
<code>@RUNDIR@</code>. If <code>--unixctl</code> is not used at all,
the default socket is
<code>@RUNDIR@/<var>program</var>.</code><var>pid</var><code>.ctl</code>,
where <var>pid</var> is <code><var>program</var></code>'s process ID.
<p>
On Windows a local named pipe is used to listen for runtime management
commands. A file is created in the absolute path as pointed by
<var>socket</var> or if <code>--unixctl</code> is not used at all,
a file is created as <code><var>program</var></code> in the configured
<var>OVS_RUNDIR</var> directory. The file exists just to mimic the
behavior of a Unix domain socket.
</p>
<p>
Specifying <code>none</code> for <var>socket</var> disables the control
socket feature.
