OCR: Help File connect <iface> <callsign> [<digipeater> ... ] Initiate a "vanilla" AX.25 session to the specified call sign using the specified interface. Data sent on this session goes out in conventional AX.25 packets with no upper layer protocol. The de-facto presentation standard format is used, in that each packet holds one line of text, terminated by a carriage return. A single AX.25 connection may be used for terminal-to-terminal, IP and NET/ROM traffic. The three types of data are automati- cally separated by their AX.25 Level 3 Protocol IDs. Up to 7 optional digipeaters may be given; note that the word via is NOT needed. If digipeaters are specified, they are automati- cally added to the AX25 routing table as though the ax25 route add command had been given before issuing the connect command.
