how do I make a node as a variable in a bash script?
I tried different things but none works.
something like
#variable
NODE="/dev/rfcomm2"

help very much appreciated!
-e

I don't understand your question. Bash variables are not typed, and
you can use $NODE where the string "/dev/rfcomm2" would otherwise be used,
e.g., perhaps with mknod(1):

...
mknod $NODE c $MAJOR $MINOR
