NAME
nrattach - Start a NET/ROM interface
SYNOPSIS
nrattach [-i inetaddr] [-m mtu] [-v] port
DESCRIPTION
Nrattach takes many of the parameters for the port from the nrports(5)
file. The paclen parameter is used for the device mtu unless overridden
by a value on the command line. The port argument is the name of a port
as given in the nrports(5) file.
Nrattach tries to find the first free NET/ROM device in the system. The
devices checked are nr0, nr1, nr2 and nr3 in that order. If no free
NET/ROM device is available an error is generated and the program
terminates.
OPTIONS
-i inetaddr Set the internet address of the interface. This address
may either be a dotted decimal address or a host name.
-m mtu Sets the mtu of the interface. If this value is not
given then the value is taken from the paclen parameter
in nrports.
-v Display the version.
SEE ALSO
netrom(4), nrparms(4), nrports(5), ifconfig(8).
BUGS
The program can be run many times with the same arguments creating many
instances of the same attributes on different devices. Not a good idea.
