.Nm idt
|
|
.Nd device driver for IDT NICStAR-based ATM interfaces
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "device idt"
|
|
.Cd "device atm"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
device driver supports ATM network interfaces based on the
|
|
IDT NICStAR 77211 controller, including the FORE Systems
|
|
ForeRunner LE25 and LE155.
|
|
For configuring the card for IP see
|
|
.Xr natmip 4 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
ATM CBR connections are supported, and bandwidth is allocated in
|
|
slots of 64k each.
|
|
Three VBR queues handle traffic for VBR and UBR.
|
|
Two UBR queues prioritize UBR traffic.
|
|
ILMI and signalling get the higher priority queue, as well as UBR traffic
|
|
that specifies a peak cell rate.
|
|
All other UBR traffic goes into the lower queue.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following sysctls are recognized by the driver:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width XXX
|

|
Set or print the maximum size of the 2KB buffer queue.
|
|
.It Cm hw.idt.bufs_small
|
|
Set or print the maximum size of the mbuf queue.
|
|
.It Cm hw.idt.cur_large
|
|
Print the current size of the 2KB buffer queue.
|
|
.It Cm hw.idt.cur_small
|
|
Print the current size of the mbuf queue.
|
|
.It Cm hw.idt.qptr_hold
|
|
