Granch sbni16 shdsl modem device driver

Usage

device sbsh

Overview

The sbsh driver provides support for an internal PCI modem SBNI16-SHDSL. A device is introduced to the OS as a common Ethernet-like network card which must be configured with ifconfig(8) (all standard network interface parameters could be set). Modem-specific parameters (master/slave mode, line rate, etc.) must be set with the sb16config utility before interface activation.

Diagnostics

sbsh%d: couldn't set up irq

A fatal initialization error has occurred.

sbsh%d: unable to load firmware

A fatal error has occurred while sb16config was running.
