This allows the password or PIN codes to be not passed as command line arguments. Comments starting with # to the end of the current line are ignored. .It Fl v Enables verbose mode. .El .Pp The .Xr umb 4 driver may require a number of additional arguments or optional parameters besides the settings that can be adjusted with .Xr ifconfig 8 . These may be credentials or other tunable connectivity variables. The .Nm utility can be used to display the current settings, or adjust these parameters as required. .Pp For whatever intent .Nm is being called, at least the parameter .Ar ifname needs to be specified, naming the interface for which the settings are to be performed or displayed. Use .Xr ifconfig 8 or .Xr netstat 1 to see which interfaces are available. .Pp If no other parameter is given, .Nm will just list the current status for .Ar ifname and exit. .Pp If any additional parameter is supplied, superuser privileges are required, and the command works in .Ql set mode. This is normally done quietly, unless the option .Fl v is also enabled, which will cause a final printout of the status as described above once all other actions have been taken. .Pp The parameters currently supported include: .Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -offset indent .It Ar apn Ns \&= Ns Em access-point Set the APN to .Em access-point . .It Ar username Ns \&= Ns Em username Set the username to .Em username . .It Ar password Ns \&= Ns Em password Set the password to .Em password . .It Ar pin Ns \&= Ns Em pin-code Enter the PIN .Em pin-code . .It Ar puk Ns \&= Ns Em puk-code Enter the PUK .Em puk-code . .It Ar roaming Allow data connections when roaming. .It Ar -roaming Deny data connections when roaming. .El .Sh EXAMPLES .Bd -literal # umbctl umb0 umb0: state up, mode automatic, registration home network provider "BSD-Net", dataclass LTE, signal good phone number "+15554242", roaming "" (denied) APN "", TX 50000000, RX 100000000 firmware "MBIM_FW_V1.0", hardware "MBIM_HW_V1.0" .Ed .Pp Display the settings for umb0. .Bd -literal # umbctl umb0 apn operator.internet username mobile password mobile .Ed .Pp Configure the connection parameters for umb0 from the command line. .Bd -literal # umbctl -f /dev/stdin umb0 << EOF pin=1234 EOF .Ed .Pp Configure the connection parameters for umb0 from a file. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr netstat 1 , .Xr umb 4 , .Xr ifconfig 8 , .Xr ifwatchd 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm utility first appeared in .Nx 9.0 . .Sh AUTHORS The program was written by .An Pierre Pronchery .
