IRDAATTACH(8)           NetBSD System Manager's Manual           IRDAATTACH(8)


NAME

     irdaattach -- attach serial lines to IrDA frame driver


SYNOPSIS

     irdaattach [-d dongle] [-fHhlmnp] ttyname


DESCRIPTION

     irdaattach is used to assign a tty line to an IrDA frame level driver.
     The following operands are supported by irdaattach:

     -d dongle     Sets the dongle type.  The following dongles are supported:

                   none      No dongle

                   tekram    Tekram IR-210B

                   jeteye    Extended Systems JetEye

                   actisys   ACTiSYS IR-220L

                   actisys+  ACTiSYS IR-220L+

                   litelink  Parallax LiteLink

                   girbil    Greenwich GIrBIL

                   The default is none.

     -f            Print the name of the IrDA frame device that should be used
                   to access the frames.

     -H            Turn on DTR/CTS flow control.  By default, no flow control
                   is done.

     -h            Turn on RTS/CTS flow control.  By default, no flow control
                   is done.

     -l            Turn on the CLOCAL flag, making it possible to run SLIP on
                   a cable without modem control signals (e.g. DTR, DSR, DCD).

     -m            Maintain modem control signals after closing the line.
                   Specifically, this disables HUPCL.

     -n            Do not detach from invoking tty.

     -p            Print process id to file.

     ttyname       Specifies the name of the tty device.  Ttyname should be a
                   string of the form `ttyXX', or `/dev/ttyXX'.

     Only the super-user may attach a network interface.

     The frame driver is detached by killing the irdaattach process.


EXAMPLES

           irdaattach tty00
           ircomm -Y -d `irdaattach -p -f /dev/tty02`


DIAGNOSTICS

     Messages indicating that the specified interface does not exist, the
     requested address is unknown, or that the user is not privileged but
     tried to alter an interface's configuration.
