                <para>
                <command>systemd-sabridge</command>provides a proxy
                to socket-activate services that do not yet support
                native socket activation. On behalf of the daemon,
                the proxy inherits the socket from systemd, accepts
                each client connection, opens a connection to the server
                for each client, and then bidirectionally forwards
                data between the two.</para>
                <para>This utility's behavior is similar to
                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>socat</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum> </citerefentry>.
                The main differences for <command>systemd-sabridge</command>
                are support for socket activation with
                <literal>Accept=false</literal> and an event-driven
                design that scales better with the number of
                connections.</para>
