NAME
uhsoctl – connection utility for Option based devices
SYNOPSIS
uhsoctl [-a apn] [-c cid] [-p pin] [-u username] [-k password] [-r path] [-f path] [-b | -n] interface
uhsoctl -d interface
uhsoctl -h
DESCRIPTION
uhsoctl is a small connection utility for Option N.V. devices that are based on Options packet interface and uses proprietary AT_* calls to establish connections. The utility (tries to) configure both default route and name servers (/etc/resolv.conf).
By default uhsoctl detaches from the terminal upon on a successful connection, a few command-line options exists that allows this behavior to be changed.
uhsoctl attempts to find a usable controlling serial port based on the provided network interface. If this fails you might specify a serial port manually.
OPTIONS
- -a apn
-
Specify APN to connect to.
- -c cid
-
Specify CID (Context ID) to use, by default CID 1 is used. If an APN has been configured once, it's enough to specify the CID used for further accesses.
- -p pin
-
Specify SIM PIN.
- -u username
-
Specify username.
- -k password
-
Specify username.
- -r path
-
Path to resolv.conf, default /etc/resolv.conf. Use /dev/null to disable updating of name servers.
- -f path
-
Explicitly set the serial port to use as controlling terminal. Might be needed if the automatic detection fails.
- -b
-
Fork into background directly, before a connection has been established.
- -n
-
Never fork into background, run entirely in foreground.
EXAMPLES
Connect to “apn.example.com” on interface “uhso0” and use PIN “1234” to enable the SIM card.
uhsoctl -a apn.example.com -p 1234 uhso0
Disconnect from a previously established connection.
uhsoctl -d uhso0
