All DSL variantes I have looked up so far use an PVC and either IP over ATM, PPP over ATM or PPPoE over ATM. The first variant is easy to configure once you know the PVC: ifconfig hatm0 <IP-address> atmconfig natm add <peer-IP-address> hatm0 0 <pvc> llc/snap That's it. As for PPP I tried to contact Brian Somers because I want to write a handbook chapter on setting up PPP servers and client for ATM, but he seems very busy. Basically ppp has already support for netgraph, so setting up PPP over ATM is a matter of ifconfig hatm0 up kldload ng_atm ppp ... For all of this you need nothing from the HARP stack. You just need a driver for your ATM card. For all ATM cards except the IDT77211 we have already non-HARP drivers (en, fatm, hatm, patm) that can do the above. The driver for the IDT77201/211 is almost ready. I plan to craft a handbook chapter on ATM as soon as possible (given someone will help me to do the markup). harti -- harti brandt, http://www.fokus.fraunhofer.de/research/cc/cats/employees/hartmut.brandt/private brandt@fokus.fraunhofer.de, harti@freebsd.org
