dtn2adminep - administrative endpoint task for the "dtn" scheme
11
B<dtn2adminep> is a background "daemon" task that receives and processes
12
administrative bundles (all custody signals and, nominally, all bundle
13
status reports) that are sent to the "dtn"-scheme administrative endpoint
14
on the local ION node, if and only if such an endpoint was established by
15
B<bpadmin>. It is spawned automatically by B<bpadmin> in response to the
16
's' (START) command that starts operation of Bundle Protocol on the local
17
ION node, and it is terminated by B<bpadmin> in response to an 'x' (STOP)
18
command. B<dtn2adminep> can also be spawned and terminated in response to
19
START and STOP commands that pertain specifically to the "dtn" scheme.
21
B<dtn2adminep> responds to custody signals as specified in the Bundle
22
Protocol specification, RFC 5050. It responds to bundle status reports
23
by logging ASCII text messages describing the reported activity.
31
B<dtn2adminep> terminated, for reasons noted in the B<ion.log> file. If this
32
termination was not commanded, investigate and solve the problem identified
33
in the log file and use B<bpadmin> to restart B<dtn2adminep>.
37
B<dtn2adminep> was unable to attach to Bundle Protocol operations or was
38
unable to load the "dtn" scheme database, probably because B<bpadmin> has
45
No configuration files are needed.
49
No environment variables apply.
53
The following diagnostics may be issued to the B<ion.log> log file:
57
=item dtn2adminep can't attach to BP.
59
B<bpadmin> has not yet initialized BP operations.
61
=item dtn2adminep can't load routing database.
63
B<dtn2admin> has not yet initialized the "dtn" scheme.
65
=item dtn2adminep can't get admin EID.
67
B<dtn2admin> has not yet initialized the "dtn" scheme.
69
=item dtn2adminep crashed.
71
An unrecoverable database error was encountered. B<dtn2adminep> terminates.
