CE(4)

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.
