NAME

       axctl - Configure/Kill running AX.25 connections.

SYNOPSIS

       axctl [-v] port dest src window|t1|t2|t3|n2|idle|paclen|kill [parm]

DESCRIPTION

       The  axctl  command  is  designed to be a multi-function command that allows miscellaneous commands to be
       issued to the Linux AX.25 protocol layer for existing  AX.25  connections.  The  connection  is  uniquely
       identified  via  the combination of port, destination callsign and source callsign, with that information
       the kernel is able to change the parameters, or abort the connection.

       Many of the options are similar to those found in  axparms  and  perform  the  same  function.  Only  one
       parameter may be changed on each invocation of axctl.

       t3 t3-timeout       Sets the T3 timeout value for the AX.25 connected, the value is given in seconds.

       n2 n2-count         Sets the maximum number of tries for the AX.25 connection.
