| | | | | | | | | | | Note this includes changes to all drivers and moves some device firmware loading to use firmware(9) and a separate module (e.g. ral). Also there no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now bundled into the wlan module. Supported by: Hobnob and Marvell Reviewed by: many Obtained from: Atheros (some bits)

* Add a bridge interface flag called PRIVATE where any private port can notthompsa2007-08-011-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | communicate with another private port. All unicast/broadcast/multicast layer2 traffic is blocked so it works much the same way as using firewall rules but scales better and is generally easier as firewall packages usually do not allow ARP blocking. An example usage would be having a number of customers on separate vlans bridged with a server network. All the vlans are marked private, they can all communicate with the server network unhindered, but can not exchange any traffic whatsoever with each other. Approved by: re (rwatson)

* Update for revised 802.11 support:sam2007-06-111-2/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o revised channel handling support; ifconfig now queries the kernel to find the list of available channels and handles channel promotion; channel attributes can be specified as part of the channel; e.g. 36:a for channel 36 in 11a (as opposed to turbo A or HT A) o use channel list to map between freq and IEEE channel #; this eliminates all knowledge of how the mapping is done and fixes handling of cases where channels overlap in the IEEE channel # space but are distinct in the frequency+attributes space (e.g. PSB) o add new knobs: bgscan, ff (Atheors fast frames), dturbo (Atheros Dynamic Turbo mode), bgscanidle, bgscanintvl, scanvalid, roam:rssi11a, roam:rssi11b, roam:rssi11g, roam:rate11a, roam:rate11b, roam:rate11g (roaming parameters), burst, doth (forthcoming 11h support) o print contents of WME, ATH, WPA, RSN, information elements with -v option o print signal strength in dBm o print noise floor in dBm o add list txpow to print tx power caps/channel o change default channel display in status to be more informative

* Rename the trunk(4) driver to lagg(4) as it is too similar to vlan trunking.thompsa2007-04-171-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | The name trunk is misused as the networking term trunk means carrying multiple VLANs over a single connection. The IEEE standard for link aggregation (802.3 section 3) does not talk about 'trunk' at all while it is used throughout IEEE 802.1Q in describing vlans. The lagg(4) driver provides link aggregation, failover and fault tolerance. Discussed on: current@
