SYNOPSIS
baycomusb [ -sv ] [-D usbdevfsmountdir] [-C configfilepath] [-d
busnr:devnr] [-i index] [-I ifname] [-t testname]

[--test=testname]
DESCRIPTION
baycomusb is a user mode driver for the Baycom EPP modem family. It
currently supports the conventional EPP modem (using the IDT 72xxx
FIFO’s) and the FPGA (Xilinx XCS10) variant. The driver automatically
initializes the FPGA modem depending on the requested mode. In order
to keep the resident memory footprint small (approx 20kBytes plus
standard system shared libraries like libc), the initialization code is
contained in a shared library called baycomfpga_init.so . This driver
is able to automatically attach itself to the kernel network stack as a
network interface (usually called ax0). To do this it requires the
Linux Kernel MKISS driver (enable CONFIG_MKISS).
OPTIONS
baycomusb accepts the following options:
-h --help Display an overview of the available command line
parameters and exit.
-v --verbose Increases the verbosity of the output. May be
cumulated.
-D --drv Specifies the mount directory of the USB device
filesystem. The default is /proc/bus/usb
-C --config Specifies the config file. The default is
/etc/ax25/baycomusb.xml.
-d --device Specifies the device by bus number and device number.
-i --index Specifies the device by a number.
-I --ifname The name of the AX.25 network interface when performing
final setup (to be used by the kernel driver).
-t --test Specifies the test to be performed.
