NAME

     ce — driver for synchronous Cronyx Tau-PCI/32 WAN adapters

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel
     configuration file:

           device ce

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in
     loader.conf(5):

           if_ce_load="YES"

     Additional options:
     device sppp
     options NETGRAPH
     options NETGRAPH_CRONYX

DESCRIPTION

     The ce driver needs either sppp(4) or netgraph(4).  Which one to use is determined by the
     NETGRAPH_CRONYX option.  If this option is present in your kernel configuration file, the ce
     driver will be compiled with netgraph(4) support.  Otherwise, it will be compiled with
     sppp(4) support.

     Refer to sconfig(8) for information about the ce adapter configuration.

HARDWARE

     The ce driver supports the following models of Tau-PCI/32 WAN adapters:

     Cronyx Tau-PCI/32     two fractional/unframed E1 interfaces, with 32 HDLC channels shared
                           between them with total adapter throughput 2048 kbps.
     Cronyx Tau-PCI/32-Lite
                           single fractional/unframed E1 interface, with 32 HDLC channels.

HISTORY

     The ce driver was added in FreeBSD 6.2, FreeBSD 5.5 and FreeBSD 4.11.  The ce driver for
     previous versions of FreeBSD is available from http://www.cronyx.ru/.
