NAME

       nrports - NET/ROM port configuration file.

DESCRIPTION

       Nrports	is an ASCII file that contains information about each of the NET/ROM ports that are to be used. When dealing with an NET/ROM util-
       ity such as call, it takes an optional argument that is the port name. This port name is a reference to the line within nrports, which  has
       the same name. The information on each line contains enough information to bind the command to a particular NET/ROM interface, this binding
       is done by matching the callsign on the line in nrports with the callsign of the port set by ifconfig.

       The nrports file may contain comments that begin with a # in the first column, or a port description in the following  format,  each  field
       being delimited by white space:

	      name callsign alias paclen description

       The field descriptions are:

	      name	    this is the unique NET/ROM port identifier.

	      callsign	    the callsign of the NET/ROM interface to bind to.

	      alias	    this is the alias of the NET/ROM port.

	      paclen	    is the default packet size for this interface.

	      description   a free format description of this interface, this field extends to the end of the line. It may contain spaces.
