NAME
       ibod - ISDN MPPP bandwidth on demand daemon

SYNOPSIS
       ibod

DESCRIPTION
       Ibod  is	 a ISDN MPPP bandwidth on demand daemon designed to operate in
       conjunction with isdn4linux.  It is normally started at boot time,  but
       can  be	started	 and stopped at any time. The program monitors inbound
       and outbound traffic on the ISDN interface. When the required bandwidth
       exceeds	the  capacity for one IDSN B-channel (64kbps) a second (slave)
       channel is connected according to the MPPP protocol. When  the  traffic
       decreases  below	 one  channel  capacity,  the slave channel is discon‐
       nected.

       A configuration file /etc/ppp/ibod.cf is read  initially.   The	device
       /dev/isdninfo  is monitored for the current state and throughput of the
       ISDN interface.	All operation on the ISDN interface  is	 made  through
       the /dev/isdnctrl interface.

       Ibod  is	 also  listening on TCP port 6050 for eventual connection from
       control panel

SIGNALS
       Upon receiving SIGHUP, the configuration file is	 re-read.   A  SIGPIPE
       closes an eventual socket connection with xibod.

ENVIRONMENT
       Variable	 IBOD_HOME  specifies the directory where to look for the con‐
       figuration file ibod.cf.

DIAGNOSTICS
       All logging is made to syslog with the identity tag ibod.

SEE ALSO
       ibod.cf(4) and xibod(1)
