Both the 2 and 4 port cards is supported and auto detected. +.Pp +Line speeds of up to 2Mbps is possible. At this speed about 85% of the +bandwidth is usable with 486DX processors. +.Pp +The standard FreeBSD sppp code is used for the link level layer. The +default protocol used is PPP. The Cisco HDLC protocol can be used by +adding +.Nm link2 +to +.Nm ifconfig. +.Pp +.Sh NUMBERING +Only one line for each card is needed in the kernel configuration file. +The first card's ports will be installed from ar0. The numbering of the +next card will continue where the first stopped, eg. if the first card +is a two port card it will use ar0 and ar1. The next card will then +start at ar2. +.Pp +The card only supports IRQ 3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12 and 15. +.Pp +The iomem area is a 16Kb block and must start at a 16Kb boundary. +.Pp +.Sh DIAGNOSTICS +.Bl -diag +.It "ar%d: Warning illegal interrupt %d." +The card cannot use the specified interrupt. Choose a different one. +.El +.Sh FILES +.Bl -tag -width /sys/i386/isa/ic/hd64570.h -compact +.It Pa /sys/i386/isa/ic/hd64570.h +.It Pa /sys/i386/isa/if_arregs.h +.It Pa /sys/i386/isa/if_ar.c +.El +.Sh BUGS +At the moment only the V.35 and X.21 interfaces is tested. The others +may need tweaks to the clock selection code. +.Pp +The code can probably stand some optimizing. +.Pp +There must be lots because this code is still very green.
