net2kiss8
Convert a network ax.25 driver to a kiss stream on a pseudo-tty
Usage
net2kiss [-sfzva]
[-i
ifname]
ptyname
Overview
net2kiss takes AX.25 packets from an AX.25 kernel network interface and converts them into a KISS data stream via a pseudo-tty.
Parameters
ptyname-
specifies the path to the pseudo-tty. If you use the special name "/dev/ptmx", then a Unix98-PTY pair is used; the pty name is written to stdout.
Options
-
-i ifname -
specifies the name of the kernel AX.25 network interface. The default is bc0.
-
-s -
tells net2kiss to search by itself for a free pseudoterminal, open the master side and create a symlink named by -p to the slave side.
-
-f -
can be used in conjunction with -s to force the creation of the symlink even if the target file does already exist. *DANGEROUS*
-
-v -
Verbose output. Displays error messages during operation and decoded packets to stdout.
-
-z -
put the network interface into promiscious mode.
-
-a -
receive every packet instead of only AX.25 from the kernel AX.25 network interface.
