.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ng_lmi
|
|
.Nd Frame relay LMI protocol netgraph node type
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <netgraph/ng_lmi.h>
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm lmi
|
|
node type performs the frame relay LMI protocol. It supports
|
|
the ITU Annex A, ANSI Annex D, and Group-of-four LMI types.
|
|
It also supports auto-detection of the LMI type.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To enable a specific LMI type, connect the corresponding hook (
|
|
.Dv annexA ,
|
|
.Dv annexD ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv group4 ")"
|
|
to DLCI 0 or 1023 of a
|
|
.Xr ng_frame_relay 8
|
|
node.
|
|
Typically, Annex A and Annex D live on DLCI 0 while Group-of-four
|
|
lives on DLCI 1023.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To enable LMI type auto-detection, connect the
|
|
.Dv auto0
|
|
hook to DLCI 0 and the
|
|
.Dv auto1023
|
|
hook to DLCI 1023. The node will attempt to automatically determine
|
|
which LMI type is running at the switch, and go into that mode.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Only one fixed LMI type, or auto-detection, can be active at any given time.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv NGM_LMI_GET_STATUS
|
|
control message can be used at any time to query the current status
|
|
of the LMI protocol and each DLCI channel. This node also supports the
|
|
.Dv NGM_TEXT_STATUS
|
|
control message.
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports the following hooks:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foobarbaz
|
|
.It Dv annexA
|
|
ITU Annex A LMI hook.
|
|
.It Dv annexD
|
|
ANSI Annex D LMI hook.
|
|
.It Dv group4
|
|
Group-of-four LMI hook.
|
|
.It Dv auto0
|
|
Auto-detection hook for DLCI 0.
|
|
.It Dv auto1023
|
|
Auto-detection hook for DLCI 1023.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foo
|
|
.It Dv NGM_LMI_GET_STATUS
|
|
This command returns status information in a
|
|
.Dv "struct nglmistat" :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset 4n
|
|
#define NGM_LMI_STAT_ARYSIZE (1024/8)
|
|
|
|
struct nglmistat {
|
|
u_char proto[12]; /* Active proto (same as hook name) */
|
|
u_char hook[12]; /* Active hook */
|
|
u_char fixed; /* If set to fixed LMI mode */
|
|
u_char autod; /* If currently auto-detecting */
|
|
u_char seen[NGM_LMI_STAT_ARYSIZE]; /* bitmap DLCIs seen */
|
|
u_char up[NGM_LMI_STAT_ARYSIZE]; /* bitmap DLCIs up */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Dv NGM_TEXT_STATUS
|
|
This generic message returns is a human-readable version of the node status.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node shuts down upon receipt of a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message, or when all hooks have been disconnected.
