qmi.tools.qmi_tool

Swiss army knife for QMI command line monitoring and control.

Run with qmi_tool ls or qmi_tool lsqmi to list all QMI contexts present on the network with the default workgroup name (“default”). To see other contexts in other workgroups, use: qmi_tool ls <workgroup-name>. You can also give timeout: qmi_tool ls <workgroup-name> 10.

You can also use this tool to kill all visible QMI contexts with the default workgroup name with: qmi_tool hard-kill. Use with care and never use without first checking which contexts will be killed, with qmi_tool ls.
