NAME¶
ax25_call, netrom_call, rose_call, tcp_call - make an AX.25, NET/ROM, ROSE or
TCP connection
SYNOPSIS¶
ax25_call [-c] [-i paclen] [-o paclen] port local_call remote_call
[digipeaters ...]
netrom_call [-c] [-i paclen] [-o paclen] port local_call
remote_netrom_addr
rose_call [-c] [-i paclen] [-o paclen] port local_call remote_call
remote_rose_addr
tcp_call [-c] [-i paclen] [-o paclen] remote_addr remote_port
DESCRIPTION¶
ax25_call, netrom_call, rose_call and tcp_call establish an AX.25,
NET/ROM, ROSE or a TCP connection in a manner suitable for calling from either
the
ax25d program directly, or from the
node program as an
external command. By setting the command line arguments appropriately it is
possible to set the local callsign from which the call will be made. No
translation of the end of lines is performed by this program.
For
netrom_call the remote_netrom_addr parameter may either be in the
form of a single callsign or as a NET/ROM alias and callsign pair separated by
colon. For example NMCLUS:GB7BPQ.
For
rose_call the remote_rose_addr parameter must be in the form of a ten
digit ROSE address.
For
tcp_call the remote_addr parameter must be a dotted-quad IP address
or a hostname and the remote_port must be a service name (see
services(5)) or
a port number.
OPTIONS¶
- -c
- Enables zlib based compression on the incoming connection.
Compression algorithm is the same as in LinuxNode (see node(8)).
- -i paclen
- The maximum frame length to be used on the incoming
connection. The default is 256 for ax25_call and rose_call, 236 for
netrom_call and 1024 for tcp_call.
- -o paclen
- The maximum frame length to be used on the outgoing
connection. The default is 256 for ax25_call and rose_call, 236 for
netrom_call and 1024 for tcp_call.
