tcp-environ - TCP-related environment variables
The following environment variables describe a TCP connection.
They are set up by tcp-env, tcpclient, and tcpserver.
Note that TCPLOCALHOST, TCPREMOTEHOST, and
TCPREMOTEINFO can contain arbitrary characters.
- PROTO
- The string TCP.
- TCPLOCALHOST
- The domain name of the local host, with uppercase letters converted to
lowercase. If there is no currently available domain name for the local IP
address, TCPLOCALHOST is not set.
- TCPLOCALIP
- The IP address of the local host, in dotted-decimal form.
- TCPLOCALPORT
- The local TCP port number, in decimal.
- TCPREMOTEHOST
- The domain name of the remote host, with uppercase letters converted to
lowercase. If there is no currently available domain name for the remote
IP address, TCPREMOTEHOST is not set.
- TCPREMOTEINFO
- A connection-specific string, perhaps a username, supplied by the remote
host via 931/1413/IDENT/TAP. If the remote host did not supply connection
information, TCPREMOTEINFO is not set.
- TCPREMOTEIP
- The IP address of the remote host.
- TCPREMOTEPORT
- The remote TCP port number.
