NOTE: I wrote this based on the records I kept on my PDA. It's not detailed, but enough to get things working. The major problem I had was that I've been able to build and make it work under FreeBSD 5.4, but any attempt to get it running on 6.2 or 7-RELEASE at the time was unsuccessful and I gave up after few late nights spent battling my way through. Later I got the new Traverse card Viking (http://www.traverse.com.au/productview.php?product_id=115), which is now is the one I have in my router for nearly a year and it works like a charm.
I've got my hands on a Traverse PCI DSL card (http://www.traverse.com.au/productview.php?product_id=21) and decided to try and get the beast working in my home router.
I used Renaud's document as the basis for configuring PPP to work with DSL line (http://renaud.waldura.com/doc/freebsd/pppoe/)
Basic Modem Configuration for my DSL provider was:
Username: eircom Password: broadband1 Encapsulation: PPPoE Multiplexing: LLC Based VPI: 8 VCI: 35 Primary DNS: 213.94.190.194 Secondary DNS: 213.94.190.236
The sources I'm using is pulsar-freebsd-20051128.tgz taken from http://sourceforge.net/projects/openadsl/files/
atm_aal/atm_aal.c and atm_aal5.c need change:
-#include <net/atm_aal.h> +#include "atm_aal.h"
when making in pulsar-freebsd-20051128/ng_atmllc do the following (PULSAR is the name of the kernel!):
cp /usr/src/sys/i386/compile/PULSAR/opt_netgraph.h .
the rest builds fine.
reload modules, otherwise ngctl will not work correctly.
pulsar# kldunload ng_atmllc.ko pulsar# kldunload ng_eiface.ko pulsar# kldload ng_atmllc.ko pulsar# kldload ng_eiface.ko
check that the following is there:
pulsar# kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 12 0xc0400000 3b549c kernel 4 2 0xc07c2000 2fa0 atm_aal.ko 5 1 0xc07c5000 42bd0 if_pls.ko 7 1 0xc080b000 580b0 acpi.ko 8 1 0xc1d7f000 3000 ng_atmllc.ko 9 1 0xc1d82000 3000 ng_eiface.ko 10 1 0xc1dd5000 4000 ng_ether.ko
now run ngctl:
pulsar# ngctl mkpeer pls0: atmllc dsl atm
pulsar# ngctl mkpeer pls0:dsl eiface ether ether
pulsar# ngctl msg pls0:dsl.ether set 00:00:12:34:45:56
pulsar# ngctl msg pls0: cpcsinit { name=\"dsl\" vpi=8 vci=35 aal=5 }
