NAME

     udbp — USB Double Bulk Pipe driver

SYNOPSIS

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

           device udbp

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

           udbp_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The udbp driver provides support for host-to-host cables that contain at least two bulk pipes (one for each
     direction), for example the EzLink cable and the NetChip 1080 chip.

     It requires netgraph(4) to be available.  This can be done either by adding options NETGRAPH to your kernel
     configuration file, or alternatively loading netgraph(4) as a module, either from /boot/loader.conf or from
     the command line, before the udbp module.

EXAMPLES

           options NETGRAPH
           device udbp

     Add the udbp driver to the kernel.

           kldload netgraph
           kldload udbp

     Load the netgraph(4) module and then the udbp driver.

           ngctl mkpeer udbp0: iface data inet
           ifconfig ng0 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2

     Create a new network interface node and connect its inet hook to the data hook of the udbp node.
     ifconfig(8) configures the resulting network interface ng0 with a local IP address of 10.0.0.1 and a remote
     IP address of 10.0.0.2.  On the remote host, the two IP addresses should of course be reversed.
