|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exposes a
|
|
.Xr pattyd 8
|
|
interface as a KISS TNC via a pseudoterminal. This device can either be read
|
|
from or written to. The device can be connected to by only one process at a
|
|
time. However, multiple instances of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
can be attached to an interface simultaneously. Each frame sent out to the
|
|
interface, or received by the interface, is written to the KISS TNC device.
|
|
In turn, each frame received by the KISS TNC is sent out to the interface.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl i Ar ifname
|
|
flag is required and must refer to the name of an interface valid on a running
|
|
.Xr pattyd 8
|
|
AX.25 daemon. Optionally,
|
|
.Op Fl s Ar patty.sock
|
|
may be given to specify another path to a Unix domain socket for that daemon.
|
|
When a KISS TNC device is successfully created, the pseudoterminal device name
|
|
is printed to standard output.
