NAME
ray_cs - Raylink wireless LAN - PCMCIA card device driverSYNOPSIS
insmod ray_cs [essid=string] [irq_mask=n] [net_type=[0-1]] [ray_debug=[0-5]] [phy_addr=xNNNNNNNNNNNN] [hop_dwell=n] [beacon_period=n] [psm=[0-1]] [translate=[0-1]] [country=[1-8]] [sniffer=[0-1]] [bc=[0-1]]DESCRIPTION
ray_cs is the low level Card Services device driver for the Raylink wireless LAN PCMCIA adapter. It is normally loaded automatically by card services according to the parameters specified in /etc/pcmcia/ray_cs.opts.PARAMETERS
- essid=string
-
ESS ID - network name to join string with maximum length of 32 chars
default value = "LINUX"
- irq_mask=n
-
linux standard 16 bit value 1bit/IRQ lsb is IRQ 0, bit 1 is IRQ 1 etc.
Used to restrict choice of IRQ's to use.
- net_type=n
-
0 = adhoc network (default)
1 = infrastructure
- ray_debug=n
- (0-5) larger values for more verbose logging.
- phy_addr=string
-
string of 12 hex digits containing new MAC address.
must be started with x e.g. x00008f123456
- hop_dwell=n
-
hop dwell time in Kilo-microseconds legal values = 16,32,64,128(default),256
- beacon_period=n
-
Beacon period in Kilo-microseconds.
Legal values = 16,32,64,128,256(default) must be integer multiple of hop dwell. - psm=n
-
Power save mode
0 = continuously active
1 = power save mode (significantly slower) - bc=n
-
Power save mode
0 = 802.11 timing
1 = 802.11 modified timing. Interframe spacing is slowed down for compatibility with older Breezecom access points. - translate
-
0 = no translation (encapsulate frames)
1 = translation (default) - country=n
-
Country code
1 = USA (default)
2 = Europe
3 = Japan
4 = Korea
5 = Spain
6 = France
7 = Israel
8 = Australia - sniffer=n
-
0 = normal network interface - not sniffer (default)
1 = sniffer which can be used to record all network traffic using tcpdump or similar, but no normal network use is allowed. This is because linux has no knowledge of 802.11 headers and cannot parse them correctly. Note that tcpdump does not understand 802.11 headers, either so it can't interpret the contents, but it can record to a file.
