.TH AX25RTD 8 "11 November 2003" Linux "Linux Programmer's Manual"

.SH NAME

ax25rtd \- AX.25 routing daemon

.SH SYNOPSIS

.B ax25rtd

.SH DESCRIPTION

.LP

.B ax25rtd

is a daemon that:

.LP

- emulates the ceased "autorouter" of Linux Kernel AX.25

.br

- sets up ARP entries automagically

.br

- may adjust IP routes and encapsulation mode

(although I really do not recomment to use this feature...)

.LP

The "autorouter" is not really an autorouter. It just listens to the AX.25

traffic on your ports and uses this information to setup AX.25 routes. This

can be turned on or off by altering the configuration file

/etc/ax25/ax25rtd.conf.

.LP

Ax25rtd provides a socket /var/ax25/ax25rtd/control which is used for

runtime maintainance through

.B ax25rtctl

or to set up new routes by other

daemons (a Flexnet router, perhaps?)

.LP

On startup ax25rtd reads the configuration file and afterwards preloads

the caches from the files /var/ax25/ax25rtd/ax25_routes and

/var/ax25/ax25rtd/ip_routes. On SIGTERM or

.B ax25rtctl --save

it saves the caches to those files.
