39.Sh NAME
40.Nm dmv
41.Nd
42.Tn DEC
43.Tn DMV-11
44point-to-point serial communications device
45.Sh SYNOPSIS
46.Cd "dmv0 at uba0 csr 167000 vector dmvrint dmvxint"
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48NOTE: This driver has not been ported from
49.Bx 4.4
50yet.
51.Pp
52The
53.Nm dmv
54interface provides access to a point-to-point communications
55device which runs at up to 56 Kb/s.
56.Tn DMV-11 Ns s
57communicate
58using the
59.Tn DEC
60.Tn DDCMP
61link layer protocol.
62.Pp
63The host's address must be specified with an
64.Dv SIOCSIFADDR
65.Xr ioctl 2 ,
66and the destination address specified with a
67.Dv SIOCSIFDSTADDR
68.Xr ioctl 2 ,
69before the interface will transmit or receive any packets.
70.Sh ROUTING
71The driver places a
72.Tn HOST
73entry in the kernel routing tables for the
74address given in the
75.Dv SIOCSIFDSTADDR
76.Xr ioctl 2 .
77To use the
78.Tn DMV
79as a
80link between local nets, the route to the remote net must be added manually
81with the
82.Xr route 8
83command, or by the use of the routing process
84.Xr routed 8
85on each end of the link.
86.Sh DIAGNOSTICS

97.It dmv%d: far end on-line.
98The other end of the connection has come online.
99.Pp
100.It dmv%d: far end restart.
101The other end of the line has restarted.
102.Pp
103.It dmv%d: bad control %o.
104A bad parameter was passed to the
105.Em dmvload
106routine.
107.Pp

109A bad packet was received.
110.Pp
111.It "dmv%d: bad packet address 0x%x."
112An input packet was received which contained a type of
113address unknown to the driver.

115.It "dmvxint: dmv%d unallocated packet 0x%x."
116A protocol error has occurred with the board.
117.Pp
118.It "dmvoutput, dmv%d can't handle af%d."
119A packet for an unsupported address family has been sent.
120.Pp
121.It "dmv%d: output timeout, bsel0=%b bsel2=%b."
122A device timeout occurred.
