+.TH AX25IPD 1 "2 February 1997" Linux "Linux Programmer's Manual"
+.SH NAME
+ax25ipd \- AX.25 into IP Encapsulator
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B ax25ipd [config-file]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+.B ax25ipd
+is an RFC1226 compliant daemon capable of providing the encapsualtion
+neccessary to send and receive AX.25 traffic across an IP transport.
+.LP
+Normally invoked as part of the boot order network initialisation,
+.B ax25ipd
+is capable of talking directly to a serial port connected tnc, or over
+a pipe to a linux AX.25 port. KAM DE Dual Port Kiss is also supported
+in this release.
+.LP
+.B ax25ipd
+can be run as a pure encapsulator, or as a digital repeater with a
+functional callsign. Destination IP addresses are determined from a
+hardcoded map of callsign/IP Address pairs.
+.LP
+.B ax25ipd
+defaults to using
+.B /etc/ax25/ax25ipd.conf
+as it's config file ...
+.LP
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP 10
+.BI \-v

+.BR ax25 (4),
+.BR netrom (4),
+.BR rose (4),
+.BR kissattach (8).
+.LP
+.SH BUGS
+Routing needs to be looked at seriously, the method of routing is a real
+hack, and improvements to it have only added to the hack.
+.LP
+Logging needs to be properly implemented.
+.LP
+Command line parsing needs to be properly implemented.
+.LP
+.B ax25ipd
+should be part of the Linux AX.25 kernel support probably :-)
