.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
daemon is a simple wrapper daemon that allows to use standard
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
on RFCOMM connection.
|
|
It can operate in two modes: client and server.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In the client mode,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
opens an RFCOMM connection to the specified server's
|
|
.Ar BD_ADRR
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar channel .
|
|
Once RFCOMM connection is established,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
executes
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
in
|
|
.Fl direct
|
|
mode with the specified
|
|
.Ar label .
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
in its turn operates over the RFCOMM connection just like it would operate
|
|
over the standard serial port thus allowing user to
|
|
.Dq "dial out"
|
|
and connect to the Internet.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In the server mode,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
opens an RFCOMM socket and listens for incoming connections from remote clients.
|
|
Once the new incoming connection is accepted,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
forks and executes
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
in
|
|
.Fl direct
|
|
mode with the specified
|
|
.Ar label .
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
in its turn operates over the RFCOMM connection just like it would operate over
|
|
the standard serial port thus providing network connectivity to remote clients.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl a Ar address
|
|
In the client mode, this required option specifies the address of the remote
|
|
RFCOMM server.
|
|
In the server mode, this option can be used to specify the local
|
|
address to listen on.
|
|
By default, server will listen on
|
|
.Dv ANY
|
|
address.
|
|
The address can be specified as BD_ADDR or name.
|
|
If name was specified then the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility will attempt to resolve the name via
|
|
.Xr bt_gethostbyname 3 .
|
|
.It Fl C Ar channel
|
|
In both client and server modes, this required option specifies RFCOMM channel
|
|
to connect to or listen on.
|
|
In the server mode, RFCOMM channel should be a number between 1 and 30.
|
|
In the client mode, RFCOMM channel could either be a number between 1 and 30
|
|
or a service name.
|
|
Supported service names are:
|
|
.Cm DUN
|
|
(for DialUp Networking service) and
|
|
.Cm LAN
|
|
(for LAN Access Using PPP service).
|
|
If service name was specified instead of numeric RFCOMM channel then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility will try to obtain RFCOMM channel for the service via Service
|
|
Discovery Protocol.
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
Act as an RFCOMM client.
|
|
This is the default mode.
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Do not detach from the controlling terminal, i.e., run in foreground.
|
|
.It Fl h
|
|
Display usage message and exit.
|
|
.It Fl l Ar label
|
|
In both client and server modes, this required option specifies which
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
label will be used.
|
|
.It Fl S
|
|
In the server mode, register the Serial Port (SP) service in addition to the
|
|
LAN Access Using PPP (LAN) service.
|
|
It appears that some cell phones are using the so-called
|
|
.Dq "callback mechanism" .
|
|
In this scenario, the user is trying to connect his cell phone to the Internet,
|
|
and user's host computer is acting as the gateway server.
|
|
It seems that it is not possible to tell the phone to just connect and start
|
|
using the LAN service.
|
|
Instead, the user's host computer must
|
|
.Dq "jump start"
|
|
the phone by connecting to the phone's SP service.
|
|
What happens next is the phone kills the existing connection and opens another
|
|
connection back to the user's host computer.
|
|
The phone really wants to use LAN service, but for whatever reason it looks
|
|
for the SP service on the user's host computer.
|
|
This brain damaged behavior was reported for Nokia 6600 and Sony/Ericsson P900.
|
|
.It Fl s
|
|
Act as an RFCOMM server.
|
|
.It Fl u Ar N
|
|
This option maps directly onto
|
|
.Fl unit
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
command line option and tells
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to instruct
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
to only attempt to open
|
|
.Pa /dev/tun Ns Ar N .
|
|
This option only works in the client mode.

.Sh PPP CONFIGURATION
|
|
.Ss Important Notes on PPP Configuration
|
|
Special attention is required when adding new RFCOMM configurations to the
|
|
existing PPP configuration.
|
|
Please keep in mind that PPP will
|
|
.Em always
|
|
execute commands in the
|
|
.Dq Li default
|
|
label of your
|
|
.Pa /etc/ppp/ppp.conf
|
|
file.
|
|
Please make sure that the
|
|
.Dq Li default
|
|
label
|
|
.Em only
|
|
contains commands that apply to
|
|
.Em every
|
|
other label.
|
|
If you need to use PPP for both dialing out and accepting incoming
|
|
RFCOMM connections, please make sure you have moved all commands related to
|
|
dialing out from the
|
|
.Dq Li default
|
|
section into an appropriate outgoing label.
|
|
.Ss RFCOMM Server
|
|
One of the typical examples is the LAN access.
|
|
In this example, RFCOMM connection
|
|
is used as a null-modem connection between client and server.
|
|
Both client
|
|
and server will start talking PPP right after RFCOMM connection was established.

.Ss RFCOMM Client
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility
|
|
supports both LAN and DUN (Dial-Up Networking) access.
|
|
The client's configuration for the LAN access is very similar to server's and
|
|
might look like this.
|
|

|

.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The client's configuration for the DUN access is different.
|
|
In this scenario, the client gets connected to the virtual serial port on the
|
|
server.
|
|
To open a PPP session, client must dial a number.
|
|
Note that by default
|
|
.Xr ppp 8
|
|
will not execute any configured chat scripts.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ic force-scripts
|
|
option can be used to override this behavior.
|
|
The example of such configuration is shown below.
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
rfcomm-dialup:
|
|
# This is IMPORTANT option
|
|
enable force-scripts
|

# You might want to change these
|
|
set authname
|
|
set authkey
|
|
set phone "*99***1#"
|
|
|
|
# You might want to adjust dial string as well
|
|
set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \\

|
|
add default HISADDR
|
|
.Ed
|

.Pp
|
|
Note that by adjusting the initialization string, one can make CSD (Circuit
|
|
Switched Data), HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switched Data) or GPRS (General
|
|
Packet Radio Service) connection.
|
|
The availability of the particular connection
|
|
type depends on the phone model and service plan activated on the phone.
