+## `ndnd dv link create`
+
+The link create command creates a new neighbor link. A new permanent face will be created for the neighbor if a matching face does not exist.
+
+```bash
+# Create a UDP neighbor link
+ndnd dv link create udp://suns.cs.ucla.edu
+
+# Create a TCP neighbor link
+ndnd dv link create tcp4://hobo.cs.arizona.edu:6363
+```
+
+## `ndnd dv link destroy`
+
+The link destroy command destroys a neighbor link. The face associated with the neighbor will be destroyed.
+
+```bash
+# Destroy a neighbor link by URI
+ndnd dv link destroy udp://suns.cs.ucla.edu

+# Forwarder Control Reference
+
+This is the detailed reference for the NDNd forwarder control tool, and implements the NFD Management Protocol.
+
+You can also use the [nfdc](https://docs.named-data.net/NFD/24.07/manpages/nfdc.html) tool from the NFD project to manage the NDNd forwarder.
+
+## `ndnd fw status`
+
+The status command shows general status of the forwarder, including its version, uptime, data structure counters, and global packet counters.
+
+## `ndnd fw face list`
+
+The face list command prints the face table, which contains information about faces.
+
+## `ndnd fw face create`
+
+The face create command creates a new face. The supported arguments are:
+
+- `remote=<uri>`: The remote URI of the face.
+- `local=<uri>`: The local URI of the face.
+- `cost=<cost>`: The cost of the face.
+- `persistency=<persistency>`: The persistency of the face (`persistent` or `permanent`).
+- `mtu=<mtu>`: The MTU of the face in bytes.
+
+```bash
+# Create a UDP face with the default port
+ndnd fw face create remote=udp://suns.cs.ucla.edu
+
+# Create a TCP face over IPv4
+ndnd fw face create remote=tcp4://suns.cs.ucla.edu:6363
+
+# Create a peramanent TCP face with a cost of 10
+ndnd fw face create remote=tcp://suns.cs.ucla.edu cost=10 persistency=permanent
+```
+
+## `ndnd fw face destroy`
+
+The face destroy command destroys a face. The supported arguments are:
+
+- `face=<face-id>|<face-uri>`: The face ID or remote URI of the face to destroy.
+
+```bash
+# Destroy a face by ID
+ndnd fw face destroy face=6
+
+# Destroy a face by remote URI
+ndnd fw face destroy face=tcp://suns.cs.ucla.edu
+```
+
+## `ndnd fw route list`
+
+The route list command prints the existing RIB routes.
+
+## `ndnd fw route add`
+
+The route add command adds a route to the RIB. The supported arguments are:
+
+- `prefix=<prefix>`: The name prefix of the route.
+- `face=<face-id>|<face-uri>`: The next hop face ID to forward packets to.
+- `cost=<cost>`: The cost of the route.
+- `origin=<origin>`: The origin of the route (default=255).
+- `expires=<expires>`: The expiration time of the route in milliseconds.
+
+If a face URI is specified and the face does not exist, it will be created.
+
+```bash
+# Add a route to forward packets to a new or existing UDP face
+ndnd fw route add prefix=/ndn face=udp://suns.cs.ucla.edu
+
+# Add a route with a permanent TCP face (face options must appear before "face=")
+ndnd fw route add prefix=/ndn persistency=permanent face=tcp://suns.cs.ucla.edu
+
+# Add a route to forward packets to face 6
+ndnd fw route add prefix=/example face=6
+
+# Add a route with a cost of 10 and origin of "client"
+ndnd fw route add prefix=/example face=6 cost=10 origin=65
+```
+
+## `ndnd fw route remove`
+
+The route remove command removes a route from the RIB. The supported arguments are:
+
+- `prefix=<prefix>`: The name prefix of the route.
+- `face=<face-id>|<face-uri>`: The next hop face ID of the route.
+- `origin=<origin>`: The origin of the route (default=255).
+
+```bash
+# Remove a route by prefix, face and origin
+ndnd fw route remove prefix=/example face=6 origin=65
+```
+
+## `ndnd fw fib list`
+
+The fib list command prints the existing FIB entries.
+
+## `ndnd fw cs info`
+
+The cs info command prints information about the content store.
+
+## `ndnd fw strategy list`
+
+The strategy list command prints the currently selected forwarding strategies.
+
+## `ndnd fw strategy set`
+
+The strategy set command sets a forwarding strategy for a name prefix. The supported arguments are:
+
+- `prefix=<prefix>`: The name prefix to set the strategy for.
+- `strategy=<strategy>`: The forwarding strategy to set.
+
+```bash
+# Set the strategy for /example to "multicast"
+ndnd fw strategy set prefix=/example strategy=/localhost/nfd/strategy/multicast/v=1
+
+# Set the strategy for /example to "best-route"
+ndnd fw strategy set prefix=/example strategy=/localhost/nfd/strategy/best-route/v=1
+```
+
+## `ndnd fw strategy unset`
+
+The strategy unset command unsets a forwarding strategy for a name prefix. The supported arguments are:
+
+- `prefix=<prefix>`: The name prefix to unset the strategy for.
+
+```bash
+# Unset the strategy for /example
+ndnd fw strategy unset prefix=/example
+```
