NAME

INET - OpenSS7 INET Devices

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/stream.h>

int inet_stream = open(inet_device, flags);

DESCRIPTION


The INET related collection of drivers and modules provide INET capabilities in a number of related forms, including TCP, UDP and IP variants.

Drivers

INET provides the following STREAMS pseudo-device drivers:

sctp(4)
is a STREAMS SCTP driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach. This device is only provided if the system is equipped with the OpenSS7 Linux Native Sockets version of SCTP. The OpenSS7 STREAMS SCTP is a direct STREAMS implementation that is available in the strsctp package.
tcp(4)
is a STREAMS TCP driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach.
udp(4)
is a STREAMS UDP driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach.
rawip(4)
is a STREAMS RAWIP driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach.
ticlts(4)
is a STREAMS connectionless-mode UNIX domain driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach.
ticots(4)
is a STREAMS connection-oriented UNIX domain driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach.
ticots_ord(4)
is a STREAMS connection-oriented orderly release UNIX domain driver providing a TPI[1] interface that uses the XOS (XTI over Sockets) approach.

DEVICES

/dev/tcp
The Transmission Control Protocol device, tcp(4).
/dev/udp
The User Datagram Protocol device, udp(4).
/dev/rawip
The Raw Internet Protocol device, rawip(4).
/dev/sctp
The Stream Control Transmission Protocol device, sctp(4).

Additional devices that are provided are symbolic links to one of the foregoing devices.

SEE ALSO

sctp(4), tcp(4), udp(4), rawip(4), ticlts(4), ticots(4), ticots_ord(4).

HISTORY

Most of the devices and modules listed here did not appear until strss7-0.8.4.
