Driver for 3Com 589 PCMCIA Ethernet adapters
Syntax:
io-net -d el589 [option[,option ...]] ...
Runs on:
Neutrino
Options:
![]() |
Use commas (,) to separate the options (not spaces). |
- ioport=num
- The I/O port of the interface. This is a required parameter and port must be a hex address (e.g. 0x320).
- irq=num
- The IRQ of the interface. This is a required parameter.
- mac=XXXXXXXXXXXX
- MAC address of controller. The default is automatically detected on supported hardware.
- nomulticast
- Disables the driver from sending or receiving multicast packets. By default, multicast is enabled.
- promiscuous
- Enable promiscuous mode. The default is off.
- tmem=name
- Name to use for typed memory.
- verbose
verbose=num - Be verbose. Specify num for more verbosity (num can be 1-4, the higher the number, the more detailed the output). The output goes to slogger, invoke sloginfo to view.
Description:
The devn-el589.so driver controls 3Com 589 PCMCIA Ethernet adapters.
Examples:
Start io-net using the 589 PCMCIA Ethernet adapter driver and the full TCP/IP stack:
io-net -d el589 ioport=0x200,irq=7 -p tcpip ifconfig en0 10.184
Files:
- /dev/io-net
- The directory where, by default, drivers and protocol modules add entries. For more information, the documentation for io-net.
Caveats:
You must specify the ioport and irq options when using this driver.
The PCMCIA/Cardbus server, devp-pccard, must be started before running this driver.
