|
|
.Nd RFC 1490 netgraph node type
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In netgraph/ng_rfc1490.h
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm rfc1490
|
|
node type performs protocol encapsulation, de-encapsulation, and
|
|
multiplexing according to RFC 1490 (which has since been updated by RFC 2427).
|
|
This particular type of encapsulation is often used on top of frame relay
|
|
DLCI channels.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv downstream
|
|
hook is used to transmit and receive encapsulated frames.
|
|
On the other side of the node, the
|
|
.Dv inet
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv ppp
|
|
hooks are used to transmit and receive raw IP frames and PPP frames,
|
|
respectively.
|
|
PPP frames are transmitted and received according to
|
|
RFC 1973; in particular, frames appearing on the
|
|
.Dv ppp
|
|
hook begin with the PPP protocol number.
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv ethernet
|
|
hook can be used to transmit and receive Ethernet frames (without a
|
|
checksum) in RFC 1490's bridging format.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Typically the
|
|
.Dv inet
|
|
hook is connected to the
|
|
.Dv inet
|
|
hook of an
|
|
.Xr ng_iface 4
|
|
node.
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports the following hooks:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foobarbazum
|
|
.It Dv downstream
|
|
Connects to the RFC 1490 peer entity.
|
|
.It Dv ethernet
|
|
Transmits and receives bridged raw Ethernet frames, without a checksum.
|
|
.It Dv inet
|
|
Transmits and receives raw IP frames.
|
|
.It Dv ppp
|
|
Transmits and receives PPP frames.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Dv NGM_RFC1490_SETENCAP
|
|
This command sets encapsulation method for the node.
|
|
The desired method must be passed as a string message argument,
|
|
and must be one of the following supported encapsulation modes:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Qq Li ietf-snap"
|
|
.It Qq Li ietf-ip
|
|
IP packets are sent using simple RFC1490/2427 encapsulation.
|
|
.It Qq Li ietf-snap
|
|
IP packets are sent inside SNAP frames.
|
|
Also conforms to RFC1490/2427.
|
|
.It Qq Li cisco
|
|
IP packets are sent and received using proprietary Cisco encapsulation
|
|
method.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Dv NGM_RFC1490_GETENCAP
|
|
This command returns current encapsulation method on the node.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node shuts down upon receipt of a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message, or when all hooks have been disconnected.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Not all of RFC 1490 is implemented.
