.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
provides an AX.25 userland stack daemon which can be used to communicate with
|
|
other hosts via KISS interfaces. AX.25-based sockets are created and
|
|
controlled by clients with remote calls to
|
|
.Nm
|
|
via a Unix domain socket. Clients, in this sense, are akin to userland code,
|
|
whereas
|
|
.Nm
|
|
would correspond to a kernel networking stack, and the Unix domain socket would
|
|
be the system call interface. Access to AX.25 sockets is provided via the
|
|
.Xr pty 4
|
|
driver, which provides a convenient means of interfacing existing and new
|
|
software with AX.25.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will search for daemon settings, network interface descriptions, and routes to
|
|
instantiate in
|
|
.Xr pattyd.conf 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Run daemon in foreground.
|
|
.It Fl c Ar pattyd.conf
|
|
Specify a configuration file to load. When this option is not specified, the
|
|
default configuration file is
|
|
.Pa /etc/patty/pattyd.conf .
|
|
.It Fl s Ar patty.sock MYCALL /dev/ttyXYZ Op tioargs ...
|
|
Run in standalone mode, without requiring a configuration file. In this mode,
|
|
a single interface,
|
|
.Li kiss0 ,
|
|
is created, with address
|
|
.Ar MYCALL ,
|
|
using
|
|
.Ar /dev/ttyXYZ
|
|
as a KISS interface, and zero or more optional
|
|
.Op tioargs ...
|
|
given to specify baud rate or flow control. Valid settings are:
|
|
.Li 1200 , 9600 , crtscts , xonxoff .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The daemon does not support forking at this time. The
|
|
.Fl f
|
|
flag has no effect until this is implemented.
