pvct - PVC test

Syntax

pvct [-v lci] [-p pktsize] [-w winsize] [-ts] [-f fep] [-l link]
pvct [-v lci] [-p pktsize] [-w winsize] [-ts] [-x dev]

Description

pvct may be used to send and receive data on an X.25 PVC. After establishing access to the PVC, all stdin is transmitted on the PVC, and all received data is output to stdout.

These command line options are recognized:

Option Description

-v The PVC's Logical Channel Identifier. Default is 1.

-p The maximum data packet size that is allowed on this PVC for both incoming and outgoing packets. Default is 128.

-w The packet window for this PVC for both directions of traffic. Default is 2.

-t enable debugging output to stdout.

-s stripping of parity bit (high order bit) on all data received from the X.25 virtual circuit before it is sent to the user's terminal.

-x specifies the full path device name to use. It is generally preferred to let pvct choose an available device.

-f specifies the FEP (Front End Processor) number. This option is defaulted to zero.

-n picks the network ID (from /etc/packetnets). The default is 0.
