I'm running xastir on a Desktop with 2 TNC's KPC3+ & KPC9612
I'm using all three ports. and both TNC's are connected using USB-RS232  
/dev/ttyUSB0 & /dev/ttyUSB1
both TNC's are in kiss mode

I'm using ax25 tools to do this. and the one connected to the KPC9612 I'm using 
the mkiss command. 


This  gives me ax0,ax1 & ax2 interfaces to bring up in xastir. 

i.e. 
1. sudo /usr/sbin/kissattach /dev/ttyUSB0 SGATE 172.1.1.2

2. beacon -c k4mqf -d WIDE2-2  -s SGATE test

3. sudo  mkiss -s 9600 -x 2 /dev/ttyUSB1
**VERIFY BY LOOKING AT THE RADIO AT TIME OF SENDING ** SAME BELOW FOR 6 & 7

set the pts ports per cmd response above

4. sudo /usr/sbin/kissattach /dev/pts/1 IGATE 172.1.1.1
5. sudo /usr/sbin/kissattach /dev/pts/2 UGATE 172.1.1.1

6. beacon -c k4mqf -d WIDE2-2  -s IGATE test
7. beacon -c k4mqf -d WIDE2-2  -s UGATE test

8. start  XASTIR in far window #4

9. Start Monitors in Windows 3

10. Start Digi_ned in Window 2

Use this cmd line as is.
first port internal to digi_ned is 1 second port is 2

digi_ned location is /opt/digi_ned

server digi_ned #sudo ./digi_ned -p IGATE -p UGATE -p SGATE -v -a -d -k


sudo axlisten -a -c -p UGATE
sudo axlisten -a -c -p IGATE
sudo axlisten -a -c -p SGATE


sudo /usr/local/bin/xastir

sudo /opt/digi_ned
