Description:

The devn-klsi.so driver controls Kawasaki-based USB Ethernet adapters.

Examples:

Start io-net using the Kawasaki LSI Ethernet adapter driver and the full TCP/IP stack:

io-net -dklsi -p tcpip
ifconfig en0 10.184

Files:

/dev/io-net

The directory where, by default, drivers and protocol modules add entries. For more information, the documentation for io-net.

Caveats:

Start the USB stack before using this driver (see devu-ohci.so or devu-uhci.so).
