Subject: Multiple ethernet cards
Date: Mon, 21 Oct 1996 10:25:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19961021142514.h-27yDJV-F-zGrvmjWZ89T9_7q0Bexem2asPxpsAPVg@z> (raw)
Can a Plan 9 PC being used as terminal or cpu server use
2 ethernet cards at the same time? Preferrably the cards
would be the same type.
I have a Plan9 PC that I've installed two 3Com cards in.
The 3c509 driver sees both cards because I get a message
for each card during boot giving the IRQs and ethernet addesses.
However, I only have acces to one of the cards through
/net/ether. After looking at the code, it appears that
devether.c, the top level ethernet driver that serves
/net/ether, is only designed to support one card. Has
anyone updated the driver to support multiple cards, or
is there some other way to access the second card?
Thanks,
Rick Yoder
