- tip <interface(asy only!)>
-
- Start a Terminal Interface Protocol (TIP) session that connects
- to the specified interface in "dumb terminal" mode.
-
- All data subsequently transmitted and received via the interface
- are raw characters, without any protocol envelope. Any packet
- traffic (IP datagrams, etc) routed to the interface while a 'tip'
- session exists will be discarded.
-
- The interface must have already been attached with the 'attach'
- command.
-
- To close a 'tip' session, use the 'reset' command. The interface
- will then revert to normal slip, nrs or kiss mode operation.
-
- This feature is primarily useful for manually communicating with
- a serial device (e.g. a TNC operating in native "cmd:" mode), or
- for establishing SLIP connections via modems.
