Specify the address of the remote RFCOMM device. The address can be specified as BD_ADDR or name. If given as a name, then the .Nm utility will attempt to resolve the name via .Xr bt_gethostbyname 3 . .It Fl c Ar channel Server mode. Specify the RFCOMM channel number to listen on. .Nm will register the service with the local .Xr sdpd 8 daemon. Note that registering services with .Xr sdpd 8 is a privileged operation. .It Fl d Ar device Use the local device with the specifed address. The device can be specified by BD_ADDR or device name. See .Xr btconfig 8 for a list of available devices. If no .Ar device is specified, the connection will be set up on a system determined device. .It Fl m Ar mode Set connection link mode. Supported modes are: .Pp .Bl -tag -compact -offset indent .It auth require devices be paired. .It encrypt auth, plus enable encryption. .It secure encryption, plus change of link key. .El .It Fl s Ar service This is the service class that will be searched for on the remote device. If no .Ar service is given, the default .Qq Serial Port service class will be used. Known service classes are: .Pp .Bl -tag -compact -offset indent .It DUN Dialup Networking .It LAN LAN access using PPP .It SP Serial Port .El .Pp In client mode, the service class may be given as a channel number, for instances where the remote device does not provide Service Discovery. .It Fl t Ar tty Slave pseudo tty name. If this option is given, .Nm will detach from the controlling process after the bluetooth connection is made, and operate over the named .Xr pty 4 pair. Otherwise, stdin/stdout will be used. .El .Sh EXIT STATUS .Ex -std .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width ".Pa /dev/tty[p-sP-S][0-9a-v]" -compact .It Pa /dev/pty[p-sP-S][0-9a-v] master pseudo terminals .It Pa /dev/tty[p-sP-S][0-9a-v] slave pseudo terminals .El .Sh EXAMPLES .Dl rfcomm_sppd -a 00:01:02:03:04:05 -s 1 -t /dev/ttyp1 .Pp Will open an RFCOMM connection to the server at .Li 00:01:02:03:04:05 on channel .Li 1 . Once the connection has been established, .Nm will detach and .Pa /dev/ttyp1 can be used to communicate with the remote serial port on the server, e.g. with the use of .Pp .Dl cu -l /dev/ttyp1 .Pp In order to use .Nm to automatically create a secured link for .Xr pppd 8 , use .Dl pty Qo rfcomm_sppd -a 00:01:02:03:04:05 -s DUN -m secure Qc .Pp in your .Xr pppd 8 configuration file. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bluetooth 3 , .Xr bluetooth 4 , .Xr pty 4 , .Xr btconfig 8 , .Xr pppd 8 , .Xr sdpd 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm program first appeared in .Fx and was ported to .Nx 4.0 by .An Iain Hibbert under the sponsorship of .An Itronix, Inc . .Sh AUTHORS .An Maksim Yevmenkin Aq m_evmenkin@yahoo.com , .An Iain Hibbert .Sh BUGS Please report if found.
