NAME
tidcl - STREAMS DoD UDP driver
DESCRIPTION
The tidcl device is a STREAMS driver that supports the Transport Layer
Interface (TLI). It provides the network service type T_CLTS, which is a
connectionless (datagram) protocol service.
FILES
/dev/tidcl Special device file for tidcl.
NOTES
The /dev/tidcl file is now supported by modifications to /dev/udp, which
is type T_CLTS. The /dev/udp file uses a different address format than
tidcl and also supports options. Existing programs that use tidcl will
still run without modification. The new udp device should be used for all
newly created applications requiring the Department of Defense (DoD) User
Datagram Protocol (UDP). Support for tidcl is not guaranteed in future
CLIX releases.
