Excerpts from what Poul-Henning Kamp said on 28 Dec 1998:

The CAIRN testbed (www.cairn.net) and the participant sites use
Adaptec ATM interfaces almost exclusively. We use a variant of the
Chuck Cranor's driver to support PVCs as distinct network interfaces,
with support for traffic control, INRIA's IPv6 stack etc. I know of
people using another variant of Cranor's driver that supports ALTQ.
We depend on our mods to make ATM emulate leased lines.

Currently we distribute our variant of the driver separately, but
ideally we would like to see atleast some of these extensions merged
into FreeBSD tree. Of course, that depends on continued support of
Cranor's ATM driver. I'm attempting to make a case for that.

thanks,
suresh
