     atlaplkup(1M)                                   atlaplkup(1M)



     NAME
          at_lap_lkup - display the lap types registered on the local
          node

     SYNOPSIS
          atlaplkup [-f network]

     DESCRIPTION
          atlaplkup interrogates the AppleTalk LAP (Link Access
          Protocol) module to find what LAP types have been registered
          by applications.  This is for internal use only.

          Since it is possible to have multiple AppleTalk networks
          attached to a system, this utility needs to know the path in
          the file system to the desired network.  Using
               -f network
          will select the network network.  For example:
               -f /dev/appletalk2
          will choose the second AppleTalk network that is attached to
          the system.  If -f - is used, then standard input will be
          used.

          If the -f flag option is not used, there is a sequence of
          other locations which are looked at for the network path.
          First, if there is an environmental variable ATNETWORK, its
          value will be used as the path to the desired network.

          If no ATNETWORK variable exists, then the environmental
          variable ATDIR is used as a path to a directory that should
          contain a file called .appletalkrc.  The first line in that
          file is the path to the desired network.

          If no ATDIR variable is found, the user's home directory is
          searched for the the .appletalkrc file.

          If all of the above attempts fail, then the default path is
          used, /dev/appletalk.


     EXAMPLE
          atlaplkup

          will print out the following:
          on /dev/appletalk
          type   connectx   name
          1                  DDP
          2                  DDP extended
