1. Documentation
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The command "apropos isdn" will list all manpages available for
|
|
|
|
|
isdn4bsd. Two more manual pages of interest to syncronous PPP
|
|
|
|
|
over ISDN users are the pages for sppp and spppcontrol.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Under directory /usr/share/examples/isdn, you will find:

2. Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration of the isdn4bsd package consists of:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- configuring a kernel suitable for running isdn4bsd. An
|
|
|
|
|
example kernel configuration can be found in the file
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT. The options available for
|
|
|
|
|
isic device driver in the kernel configuration file are
|
|
|
|
|
described in the output of "man isic".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- configuring the network interfaces iprX and/or ispX; the
|
|
|
|
|
former are used for "IP over raw HDLC" and the latter are
|
|
|
|
|
used for "sync PPP over ISDN". To configure the ipr-
|
|
|
|
|
interfaces, read the output of "man i4bipr", to configure
|
|
|
|
|
the isp-interfaces, read the output of "man i4bisppp",
|
|
|
|
|
"man sppp" and "man spppcontrol" carefully.
|
|
|
|
|
Most of this configuration is now available thru the ISDN
|
|
|
|
|
and spppcontrol sections in /etc/rc.conf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- writing a configuration file /etc/isdn/isdnd.rc for the
|
|
|
|
|
isdn daemon isdnd(8) which is responsible for the ISDN
|
|
|
|
|
call control mechanisms such as: dial on demand, dial
|
|
|
|
|
retry, dial recovery, timeout and short hold operation.
|
|
|
|
|
A sample (!) file can be found in /etc/isdn. Please read
|
|
|
|
|
the output of "man isdnd" and "man isdnd.rc" carefully.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Userland programs
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The userland programs can be found in the sourcetree under
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/src/usr.sbin/i4b and get installed under /usr/sbin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Isdntest will not be installed by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Kernel part
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The kernel part of isdn4bsd can be found at /usr/src/sys/i4b.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Answering machine messages
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Messages to be used by the answering machine can be found in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/isdn, you'll find the numbers 0 to 9, a beep and
|
|
|
|
|
a short announcement message here.
