NAME
ocd - outbound connection daemon used by DDFA software
SYNOPSIS
ocd -fpseudonym -nnode_name [
-bboard_no ][-cconfig_file ][-llog_level ][
-pport_no ]
DESCRIPTION
The Outbound Connection Daemon (
ocd) is part of the Data Communications and Terminal Controller
(DTC) Device File Access (DDFA) software. It manages the connection and data transfer to the remote
terminal server port. It can be spawned from the Dedicated Port Parser (
dpp) or run directly from the
shell.
For performance reasons,
ocd does not have a debug mode. However, a version called
ocdebug with
debug facilities is available.
See ddfa (7) for more information on how to configure the DDFA software and for an explanation of how it
works.
ocd logs important messages and error conditions to
/var/adm/syslog.
Options
ocd recognizes the following options:
-bboard_no The board number of a DTC. If it is omitted, the port number option must con-
tain the full TCP service port address. The -b and -p options must not be used
if the IP address given in the -n option is the IP address of a port.
If the
-n option explicitly names a terminal server port, the -b option is not
needed.
-cconfig_file Specify the name (including the absolute path) of the configuration file used to
profile the terminal server port. If this option is omitted, the default values
specified in the default pcf file (/usr/examples/ddfa/pcf
) are used. If
the file specified does not exist, an error message is logged and the following
values are used (note that the values for
open_tries and open_timer are
different from the default values):
telnet_mode: enable
timing_mark: enable
telnet_timer: 120
binary_mode: disable
open_tries: 0
open_timer: 0
close_timer: 0
status_request: disable
status_timer: 30
eight_bit: disable
tcp_nodelay: enable
-fpseudonym The absolute or relative path to the device file that is linked by the software to
the reserved pty. Applications use pseudonym and not the dynamically allo-
cated pty slave.
-llog_level Specify the logging level. It determines the severity of messages sent to
/var/adm/syslog. The logging levels (and how they relate to system logging
levels) are as follows:
0 Log only LOG_CRIT messages.
1 Log only LOG_CRIT and LOG_ERR messages.
2 Log only LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR, and LOG_WARNING messages.
3 Log all messages.
If this option is omitted, the logging level is set to 1.
-nnode_name The IP address of the terminal server or the port.
-pport_no A DTC port number or, if the -b option is omitted, the TCP port service address
that will be used by the software to access the port. If the value is omitted, the
value 23 (Telnet) is used by default.
