NAME
dkconfig - configure Datakit interface
SYNOPSIS
dkconfig [ -d dev ] [ -n netname ] [ -c csc nlines ] [ -b baud ] [ -w
window ] [ -ai ]
DESCRIPTION
Dkconfig configures the device dev (default #h) as a Datakit link and
gives it kernel id netname (default dk). Any subsequent reference to
the device #kname and its subdirectories refers to conversations multi‐
plexed on this link.
As a convenience, dkconfig performs a
bind("#kname", "/net", MBEFORE)
to make the dk device available to dial(2).
Option -c allows the common signaling channel, csc, and the number of
Datakit lines, nlines, to be specified.
Option -w sets the window size to window, a decimal number of bytes.
This is most important on the PC's Incon interface, which overflows if
the window size is greater than 256.
Option -i causes an Incon device (default #i) to be configured as the
Datakit connection.
Option -a causes the a serial line (default /dev/eia0) to be configured
as the Datakit connection. The async line protocol is pushed onto the
serial line's stream to provide a multiplexed connection.
