NAME

        rsports - Rose port configuration file.
 

DESCRIPTION

        Rsports  is  an  ASCII file that contains information about each of the
        Rose ports that are to be used. When dealing with a Rose  utility  such
        as call, it takes an optional argument that is the port name. This port
        name is a reference to the line within  rsports,  which  has  the  same
        name.  The information on each line contains enough information to bind
        the command to a particular Rose interface, this  binding  is  done  by
        matching  the  address  on  the line in rsports with the address of the
        port set by ifconfig or rsattach.
 
        The rsports file may contain comments that begin with a # in the  first
        column, or a port description in the following format, each field being
        delimited by white space:
 
               name address description
 
        The field descriptions are:
 
               name          this is the unique Rose port identifier.
 
               address       the address of the Rose interface to bind to.
 
               description   a free format description of this interface,  this
                             field  extends to the end of the line. It may con‐
                             tain spaces.
