devn-el509.so

Driver for 3Com 509 ISA Ethernet adapters

Syntax:

io-pkt-variant -d el509 [option[,option ...]] ... &

where variant is one of v4, v4-hc, or v6-hc.

Runs on:

Neutrino

Options:


Note: Use commas, not spaces, to separate the options.

connector=type
Network cable connector type:
0
BNC
1
UTP
2
AUI
3
FIBER

The default is automatically detected on supported hardware.

ioport=port
The I/O port of the interface. The port parameter must be a hex address (e.g. 0x320). The default is automatically detected on supported hardware (but see caution below).
irq=req
The IRQ of the interface. The default is automatically detected on supported hardware (but see caution below).
mac=XXXXXXXXXXXX
MAC address of controller. The default is automatically detected on supported hardware.
mtu=X
Maximum transmission unit. The default is automatically detected on supported hardware.
nomulticast
Disables the driver from sending or receiving multicast packets. By default, multicast is enabled.
pcmcia
Flag to indicate a PCMCIA device to the driver.
promiscuous
Enable promiscuous mode. The default is off.
verbose
verbose=num
Be verbose. Specify num for more verbosity (num can be 1-4, the higher the number, the more detailed the output). The output goes to slogger, invoke sloginfo to view.

Description:

The devn-el509.so driver controls 3Com 509 ISA Ethernet adapters.


Caution: This driver can't always detect the correct irq and ioport options, especially for ISA devices. To be sure, always specify irq and ioport when using this driver.

You can use ifconfig to enable hardware checksums if supported.

Examples:

Start io-pkt-v6-hc using the 509 ISA Ethernet adapter driver:

io-pkt-v6-hc -d el509 ioport=0x320,irq=11

Files:

/dev/io-net
The directory where, by default, drivers and protocol modules add entries. For more information, see the documentation for io-pkt*.
