.Sh NAME
.Nm lmcctl
.Nd configuration utility for Lan Media high speed serial, HSSI, and DS3 cards.
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm ""
.Op Fl i Ar interface
.Op Fl l Ar speed
.Op Fl cCeEkKsSoO
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm ""
is the user-land control program for the Lan Media high speed serial,
HSSI, and DS3 network interfaces.
.Nm ""
is used to configure various media and protocol options dealing with HDLC
serial links and hardware configurations.
.Pp
When no change is specified on the command line, the interface status is
displayed.
.Pp
The command-line options for 
.Nm ""
are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Fl i Ar interface
Use the specified
.Ar interface
name rather than the default of lmc0.
.It Fl l Ar speed
(SSI card only)
Set the interface to use a clock speed of
.Ar speed .
This is only used if the clock sourse is set to internal clocking.
.It Fl c
(SSI, HSSI)
Set the interface to use external clocking.
This is the default.
.It Fl C
(SSI, HSSI)
Set the interface to use internal clocking.  On the SSI card this uses the
internal baud rate generator.  On the HSSI card it uses the PCI bus clock.
.It Fl e
Select 16-bit CRC.
This is the default.
.It Fl E
Select 32-bit CRC
.It Fl k
Enable Cisco HDLC keepalive protocol.
This is the default.
.It Fl K
Disable Cisco HDLC keepalive protocol.
.It Fl s
(DS3)
Disable the DS3 scrambler function.
This is the default.
.It Fl S
(DS3)
Enable the DS3 scrambler function.
.It Fl o
(DS3)
Program the card for cable lengths of less than 100 feet.  In this mode,
the card uses lower power to transmit data for short cable runs, which might
otherwise overdrive a receiver.  This is the default, and will work in most
situations even with runs more than 100 feet.
.It Fl O
(DS3)
Program the card for cable lengths greater than 100 feet.
.El
.Pp
.Sh EXAMPLES

To set a SSI card for a speed of 2048000 bits/sec with HDLC keepalive off,
one could use:

.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
lmcctl -i lmc0 -l 2048000 -K
.Ed
.Pp
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm ""
program first appeared in
.Nx 1.4 .
