isdncall − establish IP connection via ISDN

SYNOPSIS

isdncall [−t timeout] addr [sub] [-dev device]

DESCRIPTION

isdncall establishes an IP connection to the specified peer addr and sub address via a circuit switched ISDN B-channel (64 kbit/s). 

isdncall waits up to timeout seconds for the ISDN call to complete or fail.  Default value is 30 seconds.  If timeout is 0, isdncall returns immediately. 

The IP address and ISDN address must be configured using isdnset(8).

Unless the device is specified using the device option or ISDNDEV environment, isdncall searches idle device.  isdncall prints the name of the device and channel ID.
