The kissattach program creates a KISS network device

• In it simplest form you can use the kissattach program as follows:
  # /usr/sbin/kissattach /dev/ttyS0 radio 44.135.96.242
  # kissparms -p radio -t 100 -s 100 -r 25
• The kissattach command will create a KISS network device. These devices are called `ax[0-9]'. The first time you use the kissattach command it creates `ax0', the second time it creates `ax1' etc.
• Each KISS device has an associated serial port.
• The kissparms command allows you to set various KISS parameters on a KISS device.
  Specifically the example presented would create a KISS network device using the serial device `/dev/ttyS0' and the entry from the /etc/ax25/axports with a port name of `radio'.
  It then configures it with a txdelay and slottime of 100 milliseconds and a ppersist value of 25.
• Please refer to the man pages for more information.
