6 ax25ipd - AX.25 into IP Encapsulator
7
9 ax25ipd [options]
10
12 ax25ipd is an RFC1226 compliant daemon capable of providing the encap‐
13 sualtion neccessary to send and receive AX.25 traffic across an IP
14 transport.
15
16 Normally invoked as part of the boot order network initialisation,
17 ax25ipd is capable of talking directly to a serial port connected tnc,
18 or over a pipe to a linux AX.25 port. KAM DE Dual Port Kiss is also
19 supported.
20
21 ax25ipd can be run as a pure encapsulator, or as a digital repeater
22 with a functional callsign. Destination IP addresses are determined
23 from a hardcoded map of callsign/IP Address pairs.
24
25 ax25ipd defaults to using /etc/ax25/ax25ipd.conf as its config file.
26
28 -v,--version
29 Display the version.
30
31 -h,--help Display a summary of the command line options.
32
33 -l,--loglevelNUM
34 Set the logging level to NUM.
35
36 -c,--configfileFILE
37 Use the configuration file named by FILE instead of the
38 default.
39
40 -d,--ttydeviceTTYDEV
41 Use ttydevice instead of the configured. This is useful
42 because on systems with unix98 PTYs the device is allocated
43 dynamicaly and thus the name is not predictable.
44
45 -f,--nofork
46 Do not become a daemon. Run in foreground.
47
49 /etc/ax25/ax25ipd.conf
50
52 ax25ipd.conf beacon(1), ax25(4), netrom(4), rose(4), kissattach(8).
53
55 Routing needs to be looked at seriously, the method of routing is a
56 real hack, and improvements to it have only added to the hack.
57
58 Logging needs to be properly implemented.
59
60 Command line parsing needs to be properly implemented.
61
62 ax25ipd should be part of the Linux AX.25 kernel support probably :-)
