device
DESCRIPTION
The arn IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n wireless driver is a loadable, clonable,
GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting Atheros AR9280/9281/9285
IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n wireless network device.
Configuration
The arn driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and
mode. The driver supports only BSS networks (also known as ap or infra‐
structure networks) and open(or open-system) or shared system authen‐
tication. For wireless security, WEP encryption, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK
are currently supported. Configuration and administration tasks can be
performed with the dladm(1M) and wificonfig(1M) utilities.
