ARSWITCH(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual ARSWITCH(4) NAME arswitch -- Atheros AR8000 series Ethernet switch driver SYNOPSIS device mdio device etherswitch device arswitch DESCRIPTION The arswitch driver provides a management interface to Atheros AR8000 se- ries Ethernet switch controllers. The driver uses an mdio(4) or miibus(4) interface to configure the ethernet interface. This driver supports port based vlan, and IEEE 802.1Q (QinQ). These op- tions can be configured with the etherswitchcfg(8) command. arswitch sup- ports addtag, striptag, and doubletag. addtag and striptag are mutually exclusive. Setting the switch MAC address is not supported. HARDWARE The arswitch driver supports the following Ethernet switch controllers: * Atheros AR8327 Seven-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch * Atheros AR8316 Six-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch * Atheros AR8236 Six-port Fast Ethernet Switch * Atheros AR8226 Six-port Fast Ethernet Switch * Atheros AR8216 Six-port Fast Ethernet Switch SEE ALSO etherswitch(4), etherswitchcfg(8) HISTORY The arswitch device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 12.0.
