TSPC(8)

NAME
tspc - tunnel setup protocol client

SYNOPSIS
tspc [-h] [-]?
tspc [-v] [-f config_file] [-i tunnel_interface] [-s source_interface]

DESCRIPTION
tspc provides a mean to configure a tunnel obtained from a tunnel server which is compliant to the tunnel setup protocol (TSP). tspc will connect to a tunnel server and request a tunnel according to the specifications inside the configuration file.

If executed without parameter default values will be used for each options.

The following options are available:

-h? Display a short usage summary and quit.

-v  Verbose flag. By default, tspc sends no output to the standard output. Verbose level is set according to the number of v's on the command line. So -v is normal verbose and -vv is extra verbose.

-s source_interface
    When requesting a tunnel the first IPv4 address of this interface will be used as the source endpoint of the tunnel. This will override the value for source IP provided by the client_v4 option in the configuration file. See tspc.conf(5) for more information.

-i tunnel_interface
    This option will override the if_tunnel option in the configuration file. See tspc.conf(5) for more information.

-f configuration_file
    Specifies a different configuration file to be used in placed of the default file /usr/local/tsp/etc/tspc.conf. The file format is detailed in tspc.conf(5) and lists the options available to customize the client.

NOTES
This software is new and is currently in Beta Phase.

DIAGNOSTICS
All messages are sent to syslog. If verbose mode is on, messages will be sent to standard output and syslog.
