Do you have some internal PCI ATM adapter or external device? FreeBSD has/had atm code in several places, there is netgraph support for atm in netgraph, ng_atm(4), ng_atmllc(4), and ng_ccatm(4). There is also natm(4), and the natmip(4) you found supported by drivers such as fatm(4), hatm(4), patm(4) and utopia(4), I have probably missed many other bits, but this should give you a larger set of reading than just the natmip(4) you had found. I believe some of this code has or is about to come under the "unmaintained" axe and being removed from the system under the claim that ATM is an obsolete technology. So if you find this usefull you need to chim in on -current and let the project know your using it. Thanks, -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@freebsd.org
