The umb(4) driver provides support for USB MBIM (Mobile Broadband
Interface Model) devices.
MBIM devices establish connections via cellular networks such as GPRS,
UMTS, and LTE. They appear as a regular point-to-point network interface, transporting raw IP frames.
Required configuration parameters like PIN and APN have to be set with
umbctl(8), a new tool specific to this driver. The IP address is configured
automatically; the default route and DNS server information have to be set
separately.
The driver is not fully functional yet, it is therefore still marked as
experimental and disabled by default. Any help welcome to complete it!
Tested on NetBSD/amd64, with a Sierra Wireless EM7345 LTE modem on a Lenovo
ThinkPad T440s. No functional change expected otherwise.
of digital video recorders popular in Europe and Australia.
These devices have a USB client port which can be used to upload and
download recordings (and other files, such as MIPS binaries for execution
on the DVR's CPU) to/from their internal hard disk, in addition to some
other operations on files and directories.
