isdnmonitor is used to remotely monitor the operation of the ISDN demon,
isdnd(8), which manages all ISDN related connection and disconnection of ISDN devices supported by the isdn4bsd package.
The options are as follows:
-c
Switch to (curses-) fullscreen mode of operation. In this mode,
isdnmonitor behaves nearly exactly as
isdnd(8) in fullscreen mode. In fullscreen mode, entering the control character
Control-L causes the display to be refreshed and entering
Carriage-Return or
Enter will pop-up a command window. Because
isdnmonitor will not listen to messages while the command window is active, this command window will disappear automatically after 5 seconds without any command key press.
While the command window is active,
Tab or
Space advances to the next menu item. To execute a command, press
Return or
Enter for the highlighted menu item, or enter the number corresponding to the item to be executed or enter the capitalized character in the menu item description.
-d
If debugging support is compiled into
isdnmonitor this option is used to specify the debugging level.
In addition, this option accepts also the character 'n' as an argument to disable displaying debug messages on the full-screen display.
-f
Specifying this option causes isdnmonitor to write its normal output and - if enabled - debugging output to a file which name is specified as the argument.
-l
is used to specify a Unix local domain socket name to be used for communication between
isdnd(8) and
isdnmonitor
-h
is used to specify a hostname or a dotted-quad IP address of a machine where an
isdnd(8) is running which should be monitored.
-p
This option may be used to specify a remote port number in conjunction with the -h option.
