.SH NAME
tcpser \- emulate a Hayes compatible modem
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B tcpser
\-d \fIdev\fP \-s \fIspeed\fP [\-l \fIlog_level\fP \-t \fItracing_options\fP] ...

.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B tcpser
command.
.PP
\fBtcpser\fP turns a PC serial port into an emulated Hayes compatible modem that 
uses TCP/IP for incoming and outgoing connections.  It can be used to allow 
older applications and systems designed for modem use to operate on the
Internet.  \fBtcpser\fP supports all standard Hayes commands, and understands
extended and vendor proprietary commands (though it does not implement
many of them).  \fBtcpser\fP can be used for both inbound and outbound connections.
