Description

a simple SLIP implementation with TUN interface

the detail of SLIP: see RFC 1055

Usage

# sliptun
usage: sliptun -s [serial speed] -l [serial device] -t [tun device]
#

Example

set up SLIP peer on OpenBSD

# ifconfig tun0 create
# ifconfig tun0 inet 192.168.200.1 192.168.200.2
# ifconfig tun0 mtu 296 up
# sliptun -s 115200 -l /dev/tty00 -t /dev/tun0 &

set up SLIP peer on Linux with sliptun

# ip tuntap add mode tun dev tun0
# ip addr add 192.168.200.2 peer 192.168.200.1 dev tun0
# ip link set tun0 mtu 296 up
# sliptun -s 115200 -l /dev/ttyS1 -t tun0 &

set up SLIP peer on Linux with slattach (standard tool)

# /sbin/slattach -L -p slip -s 115200 /dev/ttyS1 &
# ip addr add 192.168.200.2 peer 192.168.200.1 dev sl0
# ip link set sl0 up
