.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm iwi
|
|
.Nd Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2915ABG IEEE 802.11 driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "iwi* at pci? dev ? function ?"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG and 2915ABG MiniPCI
|
|
network adapters.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default, the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver configures the adapter for BSS operation (aka infrastructure mode).
|
|
This mode requires the use of an access point.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For more information on configuring this device, see
|
|
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The Intel firmware requires acceptance of the End User License Agreement.
|
|
The full license text can be found in
|
|
.Pa /libdata/firmware/if_iwi/LICENSE.ipw2200-fw .
|
|
The license is agreed to by setting the sysctl variable
|
|
.Dv hw.iwi.accept_eula
|
|
to 1.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
Join an existing BSS network (i.e.: connect to an access point):
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl "ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Join a specific BSS network with network name
|
|
.Dq Li my_net :
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl "ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 nwid my_net"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Join a specific BSS network with 64 bits WEP encryption:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 nwid my_net \e
|
|
nwkey 0x1234567890
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Join a specific BSS network with 128bits WEP encryption:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 nwid my_net \e
|
|
nwkey 0x01020304050607080910111213
|
