AUSCOPE(1)					       AUSCOPE(1)

NAME
       auscope - Network Audio System Protocol Filter

SYNOPSIS
       auscope [ option ] ...

DESCRIPTION
       auscope	is  an	audio protocol filter that can be used to
       view the network	 packets  being	 sent  between	an  audio
       application and an audio server.

       auscope	is  written  in	 Perl,	so  you	 must  have  Perl
       installed on your machine in order  to  run  auscope.   If
       your    Perl    executable    is	   not	  installed    as
       /usr/local/bin/perl, you should modify the first	 line  of
       the  auscope script to reflect the Perl executable's loca
       tion.  Or, you can invoke auscope as

       perl auscope [ option ] ...

       assuming the Perl executable is in your path.

       To operate, auscope must know the port on which it  should
       listen  for audio clients, the name of the desktop machine
       on which the audio server is running and the port  to  use
       to  connect  to	the  audio  server.  Both the output port
       (server) and input port (client) are automatically  biased
       by 8000.	 The output port defaults to 0 and the input port
       defaults to 1.

ARGUMENTS
       -i<input-port>
	       Specify the port that auscope  will  use	 to  take
	       requests from clients.

       -o<output-port>
	       Determines  the port that auscope will use to con
	       nect to the audio server.

       -h<audio server name>
	       Determines the desktop machine name  that  auscope
	       will use to find the audio server.

       -v<print-level>
	       Determines  the	level  of  printing which auscope
	       will provide.  The print-level can be 0 or 1.  The
	       larger numbers provide greater output detail.

EXAMPLES
       In the following example, mcxterm is the name of the desk
       top machine running the audio server, which  is	connected

       to  the	TCP/IP	network	 host  tcphost.	 auscope uses the
       desktop machine with the -h command line option, will lis
       ten  for	 client	 requests on port 8001 and connect to the
       audio server on port 8000.

       Ports (file descriptors) on the network host are	 used  to
       read  and  write	 the  audio  protocol.	 The audio client
       auplay will connect to the audio	 server	 via  the  TCP/IP
       network host tcphost and port 8001:

	      auscope -i1 -o0 -hmcxterm

	      auplay -audio tcp/tcphost:8001 dial.snd

       In   the	 following  example,  the  auscope  verbosity  is
       increased to 1, and the audio client autool  will  connect
       to  the	audio  server via the network host tcphost, while
       displaying  its	graphical  interface  on  another  server
       labmcx:

	      auscope -i1 -o0 -hmcxterm -v1

	      autool -audio tcp/tcphost:8001 -display labmcx:0.0
