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 contain spaces.
