+.SH NAME
+@@@ax25ipd@@@ \- AX.25 into IP Encapsulator
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B @@@ax25ipd@@@ [options]
+.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.
+.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 its config file.
+.LP
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP 10
+.BI \-v,--version
+Display the version.
+.TP 10
+.BI \-h,--help
+Display a summary of the command line options.
+.TP 10
+.BI \-l,--loglevel NUM
+Set the logging level to NUM.
+.TP 10
+.BI \-c,--configfile FILE
+Use the configuration file named by FILE instead of the default.
+.TP 10
+.BI \-d,--ttydevice TTYDEV
+Use ttydevice instead of the configured. This is useful because on systems
+with unix98 PTYs the device is allocated dynamicaly and thus the name is
+not predictable.
+.TP 10
+.BI \-f,--nofork
+Do not become a daemon. Run in foreground.

+.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 :-)
