+.Sh NAME
+.Nm i4bipr
+.Nd isdn4bsd IP over ISDN B-channel network driver
+.Sh FreeBSD SYNOPSIS
+.Cd pseudo-device \&"i4bipr\&" Op count
+.Sh NetBSD SYNOPSIS
+none
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver interfaces the IP subsystem of the operating system with the
+isdn4bsd package so that transport of IP packets over an ISDN link
+is possible.
+.Pp
+The driver just packs IP packets without anything appended or prepended
+into raw HDLC packets on the B channel and transfers them to a remote site.
+IP packets received from the remote site are queued into the local IP
+protocol stack.
+.Pp
+The format of the resulting packet on the B channel is:
+.Pp
+.Dl (HDLC opening flag) (IP-packet) (CRC) (HDLC closing flag)
+.Pp
+In the case where an IP packet for a remote site arrives in the driver and no
+connection has been established yet, the driver communicates with the
+.Xr isdnd 8
+daemon to establish a connection.
+.Pp
+The driver has support for interfacing to the
+.Xr bpf 4
+subsystem for using
+.Xr tcpdump 1
+with the
+.Nm ipr
+interfaces.
+.Pp
+The driver optionally (when compiled with the IPR_VJ option) provides Van
+Jacobsen header compression, under control of the link0 and link1 options to
+.Xr ifconfig 8
+:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width 15n -offset indent -compact
+.It link0
+Apply VJ compression to outgoing packets on this interface, and assume that
+incoming packets require decompression.
+.It link1
+Check incoming packets for Van Jacobsen compression; if they appear to be
+compressed, automatically set link0.
+.El
+.Pp
+The default values are
+.Em on
+for
+.Em link1
+and
+.Em off
+for
+.Em link0 .
