+.Sh NAME
+.Nm clnp
+.Nd Connectionless-Mode Network Protocol
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <sys/socket.h>
+.Fd #include <netiso/iso.h>
+.Fd #include <netiso/clnp.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn socket AF_ISO SOCK_RAW 0
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Tn CLNP
+is the connectionless-mode network protocol used by the
+connectionless-mode network service. This protocol is specified in
+.Tn ISO
+8473.
+It may be accessed
+through a
+.Dq raw socket
+for debugging purposes only.
+.Tn CLNP
+sockets are connectionless,
+and are normally used with the
+.Xr sendto
+and
+.Xr recvfrom
+calls, though the
+.Xr connect 2
+call may also be used to fix the destination for future
+packets (in which case the
+.Xr read 2
+or
+.Xr recv 2
+and
+.Xr write 2
+or
+.Xr send 2
+system calls may be used).
+.Pp
+Outgoing packets automatically have a
+.Tn CLNP
+header prepended to
+them. Incoming packets received by the user contain the full
+.Tn CLNP
+header.
+The following
+.Xr setsockopt
+options apply to
+.Tn CLNP :
+.Bl -tag -width CLNPOPT_FLAGS
+.It Dv CLNPOPT_FLAGS
+Sets the flags which are passed to clnp when sending a datagram.
+Valid flags are:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width "CLNP_NO_CKSUM" -offset indent -compact
+.It Dv CLNP_NO_SEG
+Do not allow segmentation
+.It Dv CLNP_NO_ER
+Suppress ER pdus
+.It Dv CLNP_NO_CKSUM
+Do not generate the
+.Tn CLNP
+checksum
+.El
+.Pp
+.It Dv CLNPOPT_OPTS
+Sets
+.Tn CLNP
+options. The options must be formatted exactly as specified by
+.Tn ISO
+8473, section 7.5
+.Dq Options Part.
+Once an option has been set, it will
+be sent on all packets until a different option is set.
+.El
+.Sh CONGESTION EXPERIENCE BIT
+Whenever a packet is transmitted, the globally unique quality of
+service option is added to the packet. The sequencing preferred bit and
+the low transit delay bit are set in this option.
+.Pp
+If a packet is forwarded containing the globally unique quality of
+service option, and the interface through which the packet will be
+transmitted has a queue length greater than
+.Em congest_threshold ,
+then the congestion experienced bit is set in the quality of service option.
+.Pp
+The threshold value stored in
+.Em congest_threshold
+may be tuned.
+.Pp
+When a packet is received with the
+globally unique quality of service option present, and the
+congestion experienced bit is set, then the transport congestion
+control function is called.
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+A socket operation may fail with one of the following errors returned:
+.Bl -tag -width [EADDRNOTAVAIL]
+.It Bq Er EISCONN
+When trying to establish a connection on a socket which
+already has one, or when trying to send a datagram with the destination
+address specified and the socket is already connected;
+.It Bq Er ENOTCONN
+When trying to send a datagram, but
+no destination address is specified, and the socket hasn't been
+connected;
+.It Bq Er ENOBUFS
+When the system runs out of memory for
+an internal data structure;
+.It Bq Er EADDRNOTAVAIL
+When an attempt is made to create a
+socket with a network address for which no network interface
+exists;
+.It Bq Er EHOSTUNREACH
+When trying to send a datagram, but no route to the destination
+address exists.
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+When specifying unsupported options.
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr send 2 ,
+.Xr recv 2 ,
+.Xr intro 4 ,
+.Xr iso 4
+.Sh BUGS
+Packets are sent with the type code of 0x1d (technically an invalid
+packet type) for lack of a better way to identify raw
+.Tn CLNP
+packets.
+.Pp
+No more than
+.Dv MLEN
+bytes of options can be specified.
