slip.config(4)                                     slip.config(4)



     NAME
          slip.config - list of slip interfaces supported  by  a  slip
          server

     SYNOPSIS
          /etc/slip.config

     DESCRIPTION
          The slip.config file must be configured on the slip server
          to establish slip connections between the slip client and
          slip host.  slip(1M) is a program that assigns a tty line to
          a network interface for a point-to-point TCP/IP link.

          Only the system administrator of the slip server can modify
          the /etc/slip.config file, which contains the slip server
          host address for each of the slip interfaces supported by
          the slip server.  mkslipuser(1M) must then be executed to
          create the machine-readable slip.user file from the
          slip.config data file.  A sample slip.config configuration
          file is

             # slip.config configuration file
             # Each line configures a serial line
             #
             128.120.254.3
             128.120.254.3

          In this example, the host has two serial interfaces avail-
          able for slip use.
