NAME
       in.echod - UDP or TCP echo protocol service daemon

SYNOPSIS
       in.echod

       FMRI
       svc:/internet/echo:default

DESCRIPTION
       FMRI  stands  for  Fault	 Management Resource Identifier. It is used to
       identify resources managed  by  the  Fault  Manager.  See  fmd(1M)  and
       smf(5).

       The  in.echod  service  provides	 the server-side of the echo protocol.
       This protocol is used for debugging and bandwidth  measurement  and  is
       available on both TCP and UDP transports, through port 7.

       The  in.echod  service  is  an  inetd(1M) smf(5) delegated service. The
       in.echod detects which transport is requested by examining  the	socket
       it is passed by the inetd daemon.

       TCP-based service

	   Once	 a  connection	is  established,  the in.echod echoes any data
	   received from the client back to the client. The server echoes data
	   until the client program terminates the connection.

       UDP-based service

	   The	in.echod  listens  for	UDP  datagrams.	 When  a  datagram  is
	   received, the server creates a UDP datagram containing the data  it
	   received and sends it to the client.
