rfkill - tool for enabling and disabling wireless devices
rfkill [options] [command] [id|type ...]
rfkill lists, enabling and disabling wireless devices.
The command "list" output format is deprecated and maintained for
backward compatibility only. The new output format is the default
when no command is specified or when the option --output is used.
The default output is subject to change. So whenever possible, you
should avoid using default outputs in your scripts. Always
explicitly define expected columns by using the --output option
together with a columns list in environments where a stable output is
required.
-J, --json
Use JSON output format.
-n, --noheadings
Do not print a header line.
-o, --output
Specify which output columns to print. Use --help to get a
list of available columns.
-r, --raw
Use the raw output format.
--help Display help text and exit.
--version
Display version information and exit.
help Display help text and exit.
event Listen for rfkill events and display them on stdout.
list [id|type ...]
List the current state of all available devices. The command
output format is deprecated, see the section DESCRIPTION. It
is a good idea to check with list command id or type scope is
appropriate before setting block or unblock. Special all type
string will match everything. Use of multiple id or type
arguments is supported.
block id|type [...]
Disable the corresponding device.
unblock id|type [...]
Enable the corresponding device. If the device is
hard-blocked, for example via a hardware switch, it will
remain unavailable though it is now soft-unblocked.
rfkill --output ID,TYPE
rfkill block all
rfkill unblock wlan
