NAME
     ctau — driver for synchronous Cronyx Tau WAN adapters


SYNOPSIS
     device ctau

     Additional options:
     device sppp
     options NETGRAPH
     options NETGRAPH_CRONYX

     In /boot/device.hints:
     hint.ctau.0.at="isa"
     hint.ctau.0.port="0x240"
     hint.ctau.0.irq="15"
     hint.ctau.0.drq="7"


DESCRIPTION
     The ctau 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 ctau driver will be compiled with
     netgraph(4) support.  Otherwise, it will be compiled with sppp(4) support.

     The base I/O port address specified in /boot/device.hints must match the port address set by the jumpers on
     the board.  The DMA I/O channel and interrupt request numbers are configured by software at adapter
     initialization.  Legal values are:

     Port:  0x200, 0x220, 0x240, 0x260, 0x280, 0x2a0, 0x2c0, 0x2e0, 0x300, 0x320, 0x340, 0x360, 0x380, 0x3a0,
            0x3c0, 0x3e0
     IRQ:   3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 15
     DMA:   5, 6, 7

     The ctau driver supports autodetection.  As for all non-PNP hardware, using autodetection could lead to
     some potential problems with other devices during the hardware detection process.  It is always better to
     specify hardware resources manually.

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


HARDWARE
     The ctau driver supports the following cards:

     •   Cronyx Tau (RS-232/V.35)
     •   Cronyx Tau/R (RS-530/RS-449)
     •   Cronyx Tau/E1 (fractional E1)
     •   Cronyx Tau/G703 (unframed E1)

HISTORY
     The ctau driver was added in FreeBSD 5.3 and FreeBSD 4.10.  The ctau driver for previous versions of
     FreeBSD is available from http://www.cronyx.ru/.
