Being new to ATM I have a few basic questions. The HARP stack seems to provide only a logical network device, which is unsuitable for pppoed. Cards that work with NATM look like a solution for -STABLE, and for -CURRENT, there's netgraph-atm with its assorted drivers. That means that the ENI-155 or Adaptec ANA-59x0 with the en(4) driver, or the Marconi PCA200E or HE155 with the ngatm drivers should do what I want without further work. Is that correct so far? Currently, I have a Prosum PROATM 155F available. The driver by Prosum probably needs to be changed for NATM or ngatm. Any gotchas I'll have to watch for when doing that?

Actually a driver for NATM is much easier than one for HARP. ngatm adds only a little bit bu allowing to specify parameters for different connection types. Converting from HARP to this should mean taking out stuff. As far as I understand PPP over ATM does not involve any signalling (purely PVCs). In this case using ngatm should be trivial. You need only the drivers, the ng_atm node and a script that plugs everything together. harti -- harti brandt, http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/cats/employees/hartmut.brandt/private brandt@fokus.gmd.de, brandt@fokus.fhg.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-atm" in the body of the message
