NAME

     ipwfw — Firmware Module for Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 driver

SYNOPSIS

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

           device ipwfw

     This will include three firmware images inside the kernel.  If you want to pick only the firmware image for
     the mode you want to operate your network adapter in choose one of the following:

           device ipwbssfw
           device ipwibssfw
           device ipwmonitorfw

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

           ipw_bss_load="YES"
           ipw_ibss_load="YES"
           ipw_monitor_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     This module provides access to firmware sets for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 series of IEEE 802.11
     adapters.  It may be statically linked into the kernel, or loaded as a module.

     For the loaded firmware to be enabled for use the license at /usr/share/doc/legal/intel_ipw.LICENSE must be
     agreed to by adding the following line to loader.conf(5):

           legal.intel_ipw.license_ack=1
