isdnmonitor(8)

NAME

isdnmonitor - isdn4bsd / isdnd remote monitoring tool

SYNOPSIS

isdnmonitor [-c] [-d debuglevel] [-f filename] [-h hostspec]
            [-l pathname] [-p portspec]

DESCRIPTION

The isdnmonitor utility is used to remotely monitor the op

eration of the
isdn daemon, isdnd(8), which manages all ISDN related con

nection and disconnection of ISDN devices supported by the isdn4bsd pack

age.

The options are as follows:

-c Switch to (curses-) fullscreen mode of operation.

In this mode,

isdnmonitor behaves nearly exactly as isdnd(8) in

fullscreen
mode. In fullscreen mode, entering the control

character
Control-L causes the display to be refreshed and en

tering
Carriage-Return or Enter will pop-up a command win

dow. Because
isdnmonitor will not listen to messages while the

command window
is active, this command window will disappear auto

matically after
5 seconds without any command key press.

While the command window is active, Tab or Space ad

vances to the
next menu item. To execute a command, press Return

or Enter for
the highlighted menu item, or enter the number cor

responding to
the item to be executed or enter the capitalized

character in the
menu item description.

-d If debugging support is compiled into isdnmonitor

this option is

used to specify the debugging level.

In addition, this option accepts also the character
argument to disable displaying debug messages on the

full-screen
display.

-f Specifying this option causes isdnmonitor to write

its normal

output and - if enabled - debugging output to a file

which name
is specified as the argument.

-l is used to specify a Unix local domain socket name

to be used for

communication between isdnd(8) and isdnmonitor.

-h is used to specify a hostname or a dotted-quad IP

address of a

machine where an isdnd(8) is running which should be

monitored.

-p This option may be used to specify a remote port

number in con

junction with the -h option.

ENVIRONMENT

The following environment variables affect the execution of

isdnmonitor:

TERM The terminal type when running in full-screen dis

play mode. See

environ(7) for more information.

EXIT STATUS

Exit status is 0 on success, 1 on error.

EXAMPLES

For a first try, the following command should be used to

start
isdnmonitor to monitor a locally running isdnd:

isdnmonitor -h localhost
