NAME

       kissnetd - Create a virtual network.

SYNOPSIS

       kissnetd [-f size] [-v] [-p <num> | tty... ]

DESCRIPTION

       Kissnetd  allows  the  creation  of  a  virtual network of AX.25 systems that use the KISS
       protocol. Each tty named on the command line is opened and any KISS frames received on tty
       is  copied  to  the  other  ttys.  This allows a number of AX.25 systems to share the same
       packets.

OPTIONS

       -p num    Automaticaly allocate num Unix98 slave pty's via /dev/ptmx.  These  are  written
                 to  stdout  and  could be parsed by your startup scripts.  "kissnetd -p 3" is an
                 comfortable alternative to "kissnetd /dev/ptmx /dev/ptmx /dev/ptmx".

       -f size   This sets the maximum KISS frame size that the program will handle. The  default
                 is 512 bytes which will be adequate under most circumstances.

       -v        Enables verbose mode, tracing of data passed is sent to standard output.
