84 TCP/IP AX3000 User's Manual
Notes:
- Lines beginning with '#' are ignored.
- Association lines 1, 2, 4 and 5 use the tty service, and association line 3
uses rtty service.
- Association line 4 uses a link file (/dev/axel). This file is linked with an
undefined slave ttyp (/dev/pts/xxx). This link file is automatically created
when axttyd is run.
Errors (syntax error, unknown AX3000 hostname, ptty not available, etc) are
recorded in a log file.
b) Running the Axel Tty Server
The command to start the AXEL tty server is:
/etc/axttyd [-f file] [-l log] [-n port] [-hbFUk] &
-b: use a buffer for received data.
-f: configuration file (default: /etc/axfile).
-F: ttyp buffers are flushed when the tty connection is established.
-h: on-line help.
-l: log file (default: /tmp/axttylog).
-n: TCP port (default: 2048) for connections using the tty service.
-U: only unidirectional dataflow is supported. Data from the network is
dropped.
-k: turn-off keepalive function.
Note: take care to add the '&' character at the end of line.
The AXEL tty server can be started either from the UNIX command line or at
boot time (from S91axel or S91axtty).
All authorised associations, connections and disconnections will be recorded in
the specified log file.
