Subject:   SCTP implementation and pccard.conf change for Cisco 802.11B 340 series  cards
Message-ID:  <3A347725.AD33DDC5@em.cig.mot.com>

I am currently at IETF 49, where I have moved from my old wi card to the

new Cisco 342, which is an an card, since Cisco acquired them.  The 342
does 128-bit or less encryption at 11 meg, thus it was a worthy
investment.  However, pccard.conf does not have an entry for the card,
since it was JUST released.  The appropriate entry is:

#Cisco 340 series 802.11B wireless NICs
card "Cisco Systems" "340 Series Wireless LAN Adapter"
        config  0x5 "an" ?
        insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device
        remove  /sbin/ifconfig $device delete

This allows the Cisco 34x  cards to work, including the 342.  One
caveat, however...I haven't looked at the source, yet, but it is pretty
safe to assume that 128-bit at 11meg support is not in the driver.  I
will take a look at this when I have some spare time, but since I am
currently tied up with writing SCTP reference code for a linux kernel
(this was not my choice...it is my job), I may not have a ton of time
for a bit of time.  If anyone can work on this, it'd be appreciated.

On a second note, I am willing to lead the SCTP implementation team for
FBSD, if there is not already one in place.  We will be releasing the
first developer's release of the SCTP reference code (it will not be
complete, but it currently works, and still will) on January 19th,
2001.  At that point, we should be able to get the implementation under
way.

Have a good day,
-Taz
