ASTMAN(1)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							 ASTMAN(1)

NAME

       astman -- a client to asterisk's manager interface

SYNOPSIS

       astman hostname

DESCRIPTION

       astman This program is a full-screen (terminal) client for Asterisk's manager interface.

OPTIONS

       hostname

       The host name or IP address to connect to (TCP port 5038). If astman fails to connect it will exit immidiately.

USAGE

       If  astman  has	successfully  cunnected to the manager port it will prompt the user for a username and a secret (password) for the manager
       interface on the remote Asterisk manager interface. It will then be able to report existing channels (calls). You will then be able to  re-
       direct calls to or terminate them.

SEE ALSO

       asterisk(8)

BUGS

       The hostname does not default to localhost.

       Impossible to use a port other than 5038.

       The username and password cannot be defined from the command-line.

       I mean, what's the point in a man page if the syntax is so simple?
