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.
