Table of Contentsatmsigd.conf - configuration file for the ATM signaling demon /etc/atmsigd.conf atmsigd.conf contains configuration data for atmsigd. atmsigd reads atmsigd.conf after parsing the command line options, before connecting to the ATM network. Configuration parameters are arranged in functional groups. In order to set a parameter, the name of the group, the name of the parameter, and the parameter value(s) have to be specified, e.g.
sig level debug
decreases the logging threshold for messages related to signaling to the debug level. The following options are recognized:
- debug dump path
- Specifies the directory to which atmsigd will write status and trace dumps. If tracing is not yet enabled, the trace size is automatically set to a (small) default value.
- debug level level
- Sets the default debug level to level. level can be any of debug, info, warn, error, and fatal. Only messages with a higher priority than the debug level are printed.
- debug log path
- Specifies the file to which atmsigd writes logging messages. When using the special file name syslog, messages are send to the system logger instead. Log messages are written to standard output if no log file is specified.
- debug trace [number]
- Enables tracing and optionally sets the number of entries that should be kept in the trace buffer. A (small) default is used if the number is omitted.
- io level level
- Sets the debug level for IO-related messages to level.
- io qos qos
- Configures the signaling VC to use the specified QOS (see qos(7) for the syntax). By default, UBR at link speed is used on the signaling VC.
- io vc [itf].vpi.vci
- Uses the specified VC for signaling messages instead of the usual 0.0.5.
- saal level level
- Sets the debug level for messages related to SAAL (i.e. SSCF and SSCOP) to level.
- sig level level
- Sets the debug level for messages related to signaling (Q.2931 or ISP) to level.
- sig network
- Assume the role of the network side of the UNI.
- sig uni30
- Use UNI 3.0 signaling. This option is not implemented. The signaling mode must be configured at compile time.
- sig uni31
- Use UNI 3.1 signaling. This option is not implemented. The signaling mode must be configured at compile time.
- sig vpci vpci itf itf
- Sets up a very simplistic type of routing. All calls with VPCI values equal to or greater than vpci will be routed to itf, and their VPI values will be set to the signaled VPCI minus vpci. Multiple sig vpci entries can be used to support an arbitrary number of interfaces. Example: with sig vpci 4 itf 1, a call signaled for VPCI/VCI 0.x is routed to 0.0.x, a call signaled for 6.y is routed to 1.2.y, etc.
When setting multiple parameters in the same group, the group name doesn't have to be repeated if it is followed by the parameters in curly braces. Example:
debug {
level warn
dump /var/tmp
log syslog
trace 100
}
Line breaks can be inserted in atmsigd.conf wherever spaces or tabs are allowed. Everything between a `#' and the end of the line is considered a comment. The `#' character cannot be escaped.
If an option is specified in atmsigd.conf and on the command line, atmsigd.conf wins. For historical reasons, synonyms (e.g. abbreviated or long forms) exist for most keywords. Future versions of atmsigd will only recognize the syntax described on this man page. Werner Almesberger, EPFL LRC <werner.almesberger@lrc.di.epfl.ch> atmsigd(8), qos(7), syslogd(8)
