My recent proposal for dladm/wifi proposes a new "link properties" mechanism for dladm(1M) that we hope will present a convenient and easy way to administer link-specific properties. Right now, the properties are specific to WiFi, but the current plan is to extend this to adjust other per-link properties. I realize this is not yet a solution for you because you must use GLDv2, but longer-term (e.g., either when you can port to GLDv3, or when Clearview's Nemo Unification work allows your driver to be managed with dladm), I hope you will be able to make use of it. -- meem _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
