+Remote Maintenance Protocol Family
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "options RMP"

+.In netrmp/rmp.h
+.In netrmp/rmp_var.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn socket AF_RMP SOCK_RAW proto
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+Hewlett-Packard's Remote Maintenance Protocol family is a collection
+of protocols layered atop
+.Tn IEEE 802.3 .
+The current implementation of the RMP family provides protocol support only
+for the
+.Dv SOCK_RAW
+socket type.
+As a result,
+.Xr sendto 2
+and
+.Xr recvfrom 2
+must be used to send and
+receive
+.Tn RMP
+packets.
+.Pp
+The format of an
+.Tn RMP
+packet is defined in the include file
+.In netrmp/rmp_var.h .
+The
+.Tn RMP
+packet arrives encapsulated in an
+.Pf ( Tn HP
+extended)
+.Tn IEEE 802.2
+packet.
+The
+.Tn IEEE 802.2
+packet
+is preceded by the kernel address of an
+.Ar ifnet struct
+which is used to `route' a packet out the same interface it
+arrived on.
+Outgoing packets are encapsulated in a standard
+.Tn IEEE 802.3
+packet, while incoming packets have this information stripped away.
+.Sh ADDRESSING
+.Tn RMP
+.Pf ( Tn IEEE
+802.3) addresses are 6 octets in length (48 bytes).
+Sockets in the Remote Maintenance Protocol family use the following
+addressing structure:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+struct sockaddr_rmp {
+ short srmp_family;
+ u_char srmp_dhost[6];
+};
+.Ed
+.Sh PROTOCOLS
+The
+.Tn RMP
+protocol family supported by the operating system
+currently consists of the Boot Protocol
+.Pq Em proto= Ns Dv RMPPROTO_BOOT .
+Unfortunately, we have no documentation on the Remote Maintenance
+Protocol and only sketchy information about the Boot Protocol.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+protocol interface
+.Ud
+.Sh BUGS
+.Bl -bullet
+.It
+The
+.Tn HP ROM
+uses
+.Tn IEEE
+802.3 (as opposed to Ethernet) packets. While the
+kernel heuristically recognizes these packets, a more general mechanism
+for doing so should be provided.
+.It
+The
+.Tn HP ROM
+uses a multicast address when first trying to locate boot
+servers. While the Ethernet [sic] board is programmed to recognize
+this particular multicast address (9:0:9:0:0:4), a more general
+mechanism for doing so should be provided.
+.It
+The kernel supports only
+.Tn RAW
+sockets for the
+.Tn RMP
+protocol.
+This is either a bug or a feature, since the kernel is smaller at the
+price of greater complexity in the server.
+.It
+There is no support for
+.Xr bind 2 Ns 'ing
+an address in the
+.Tn RMP
+domain.
+Something like an
+.Dv RMPADDR_ANY
+should be provided to prevent more than one
+.Xr rbootd 8
+server from running at the same time.
