.Dd April 26, 2003 .Dt RFCOMM_SPPD 1 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm rfcomm_sppd .Nd RFCOMM Serial Port Profile daemon .Sh SYNOPSIS .Nm .Op Fl a Ar BD_ADDR .Op Fl b .Op Fl c Ar channel .Op Fl t Ar tty .Op Fl h .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm is a Serial Port Profile daemon. It opens RFCOMM connection to the specified server's BD_ADDR and channel. Once connection is established .Nm provides access to the server's remote serial port via .Xr pty 4 interface.

p .Nm opens both master and slave pseudo terminals. This is done to ensure that RFCOMM connection stays open until .Nm is terminated. The data received from the master pseudo terminal are sent over the RFCOMM connection. The data received from the RFCOMM connection are written into master pseudo terminal. The application in its turn opens slave pseudo terminal and operates on it just like it would operate over the standard serial port.

p The options are as follows: l -tag -width indent t Fl a Ar BD_ADDR This requied option specifies the remote BD_ADDR of the RFCOMM server. t Fl b Detach from the controlling terminal, i.e. run in background. t Fl c Ar channel This required option specifies RFCOMM channel to connect to. This channel must provide Serial Port service. t Fl t Ar tty Slave pseudo tty name. t Fl h Display usage message and exit. .El .Sh EXAMPLES l -tag -width indent t rfcomm_sppd -a 00:01:02:03:04:05 -c 1 -t /dev/ttyp1

p Will start .Nm and open RFCOMM connection to the server at .Em 00:01:02:03:04:05 and channel .Em 1 . Once connection has been established

a /dev/ttyp1 can be used to talk to the remote serial port on the server. .El .Sh FILES l -tag -width /dev/tty[p-sP-S][0-9a-v]x -compact t Pa /dev/pty[p-sP-S][0-9a-v] master pseudo terminals t Pa /dev/tty[p-sP-S][0-9a-v] slave pseudo terminals .El .Sh DIAGNOSTICS .Ex -std .Sh BUGS .Nm currently is not integrated with SDP (Service Discovery Protocol). .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr pty 4 , .Xr ng_btsocket 4 , .Xr rfcomm_pppd 8 .Sh AUTHORS .An Maksim Yevmenkin Aq m_evmenkin@yahoo.com
