.Dd January 24, 2007 .Dt RFCOMM_SPPD 1 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm rfcomm_sppd .Nd RFCOMM Serial Port Profile daemon .Sh SYNOPSIS .Nm .Op Fl c Ar channel .Op Fl d Ar device .Op Fl t Ar tty .Fl a Ar address .Nm .Op Fl d Ar device .Op Fl t Ar tty .Fl c Ar channel .Fl s Ar service .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm utility is a Serial Port Profile daemon, providing serial access over an RFCOMM connection to a remote device. .Nm can work in client or server mode.
p In client mode, .Nm initiates an RFCOMM connection to the remote .Ar address and .Ar channel .
p In server mode, .Nm registers the given .Ar service with the local SDP server and listens on the specified RFCOMM .Ar channel for an incoming connection.
p The options are as follows: l -tag -width ".Fl c Ar channel" t Fl a Ar address Specify the address of the remote RFCOMM device, to connect in client mode. 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 . t Fl c Ar channel This option specifies the RFCOMM channel to use. The .Ar channel may be specified as a number or, in client mode, the name of the service on the remote device. If no remote .Ar channel is specified, then .Nm will search for the Serial Port service by default. t 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 devices available. If no .Ar device is specified, the connection will be set up on a system determined device. t Fl s Ar service Server mode. When this option is given, .Nm will register as the .Ar service with the local SDP server and listen for an incoming connection on the given .Ar channel . Note that registering services with .Xr sdpd 8 is a privileged operation. t 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
