Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-atm@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello, I would like to get rid of some NT machines, which I now must use as this is the only way to get a "bridged mode" Ethernet encapsulation (with Rfc1483). As I was told, the best way to add this kind of feature would be to add netgraph hooks to the existing ATM FreeBSD code (this is indeed heavily hinted at in the Netgraph doc). Has someone had a look at such a possibility ? TfH PS : this could be the begnning of a better support for ISP-side xDSL, as each ATM PVC could be in the beginning used as an Ethernet half-bridge, and later as a PPPoE or PPTP termination. PS2 : the ATM board used is the Fore PCA200e PS3 : the mailing list archives are quite silent on this subject (I could only find the announce of the Netgraph inclusion in FreeBSD) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-atm" in the body of the message
