Sami Kerola 235825b084 docs: enhance manual page readability
This patch adds consistant underlining to arguments, and unifies
spacing. Also the wording for -L is made much better, it's been
common to hear the manual was unclear about that option.

.SH NAME
dhcpd-pools \- ISC dhcpd pools usage analysis
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B dhcpd-pools
[options]
[\fIOPTIONS\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The program analyses ISC dhcpd shared network and pool usage and outputs the
results in a format selected by user.
.SH FIELDS
.TP
.I "shared net name"
Name of the shared-network for the range.
.TP
.I "first ip"
First IP in lease pool range.
.TP
.I "last ip"
Last IP in lease pool range.
.TP
.I "max"
Number of IPs which exist in a pool, shared network or all together.
.TP
.I "cur"
Number of leases currently in use.
.TP
.I "percent"
Percent of IPs currently in use compared to max.
.TP
.I "touch"
Number of IP's which appear in the lease file, but who's leases have expired.
A touched IP is either expired or abandoned. The touched IP count is
somewhat misleading when you try to determine if an IP pool is big enough; it
is a better indicator of whether a pool is too large.
.TP
.I "t+c"
The sum of Touched and Currently in-use leases.
.TP
.I "t+c perc"
Percent of IPs either touched or currently in use, compared to max.
.TP
.I "bu"
Failover pair can allocate these addresses. The count appears only if there
is failover configuration.
.TP
.I "bu perc"
Percent of addresses that failover pair can allocate. The percent appears
only if there is failover configuration.
.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-config\fR=\fIFILE\fR
Path to the dhcpd.conf file.
.TP
\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-leases\fR=\fIFILE\fR
Path to the dhcpd.leases file.
.TP
\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-sort\fR=\fI[nimcptTe]\fR
Sort ranges by chosen fields as a sorting keys. Maximum of five sort keys
can be defined. Keys weight from left to right i.e. if more weighting keys
are equal next one is used. The IP field is default sort key.
.TP
\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-reverse\fR
Sort results in reverse order.
.TP
\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-format\fR=\fI[thHcxX]\fR
Output format. The default is
text
.RI ( t ).
Standard html
.RI ( h )
outputs only the HTML tables, and is useful for embeding more complex web
pages. Full-html
.RI ( H )
provides complete HTML headers, etc., including in-line CSS. The
.RI ( c )
stands for comma-separated values. Output format xml
.RI ( x )
is similar to the dhcpstatus Perl module output. The extended xml
.RI ( X )
format will print ethernet address details.
.TP
\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-output\fR=\fIFILE\fR
.I File
where output is written. Default is stdout.
.TP
\fB\-L\fR, \fB\-\-limit\fR=\fINR\fR
The
.I NR
will limit what will be printed. Syntax is similar to
.IR chmod (1)
permission string. The
.I NR
limit string uses two digits which vary between
.IR 0 \ to \ 7 .
The first digit determines which headers to display, and the second digit
determines which numeric analysis tables to include in the output. The
following values are "OR'd" together to create the desired output. The
default is
.IR 77 .
