It is useful for debugging LPC sockets applications. Each row in the output corresponds to a single LPC socket. The first row corresponds to LPC socket descriptor 0, the second row, 1, etc. The total number of sockets is configured when the driver is built. <p> The first column "Fd" is the operating system file descriptor associated with the LPC socket. "State" is the current operational state of the LPC socket. "Mode" is the socket mode, which is passed as an argument to socket_create(). The local and remote addresses are the Internet address and port numbers in Internet dot notations. '*' indicates an address or which is 0. N.B. LPC sockets that are in the CLOSED state are not currently in use; therefore the data displayed for that socket may be idiosyncratic. <p> The following output was generated on Portals, where the only socket application running at the time was MWHOD. It indicates that two sockets are current in use, one is listening for connection requests on a STREAM mode socket. The other is waiting for incoming data on a DATAGRAM mode socket. <p> <pre> Fd State Mode Local Address Remote Address -- --------- -------- ----------------- ------------------ 13 LISTEN STREAM *.6889 *.* 14 BOUND DATAGRAM *.6888 *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* -1 CLOSED MUD *.* *.* </pre> <p> See also: <A HREF=debug_info.html> debug_info </A>, <A HREF=dump_file_descriptors.html> dump_file_descriptors </A> <p> <HR> <ADDRESS> <A HREF=http://wagner.princeton.edu/~tim> Tim Hollebeek </A> <p> <A HREF="http://www.imaginary.com/~beek/"> Beek </A>@ZorkMUD, Lima Bean, IdeaExchange, TMI-2, and elsewhere </ADDRESS>
