-.Sh NAME
-.Nm an
-.Nd "Aironet Communications 4500/4800 wireless network adapter driver"
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-To compile this driver into the kernel,
-place the following lines in your
-kernel configuration file:
-.Bd -ragged -offset indent
-.Cd "device an"
-.Cd "device wlan"
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Alternatively, to load the driver as a
-module at boot time, place the following line in
-.Xr loader.conf 5 :
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-if_an_load="YES"
-.Ed
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides support for Aironet Communications 4500 and 4800
-wireless network adapters and variants, including the following:
-.Pp
-.Bl -bullet -compact -offset indent
-.It
-Aironet Communications 4500 and 4800 series
-.It
-Cisco Aironet 340 and 350 series
-.El
-.Pp
-Support for these devices include the ISA and PCI
-varieties.
-The Aironet 4500 series adapters operate at 1 and 2Mbps while
-the Aironet 4800 series and Cisco adapters can operate at 1, 2, 5.5 and 11Mbps.
-The ISA and PCI
-devices are all based on the same core PCMCIA hardware
-and all have the same programming interface.
-The ISA and PCI cards appear to the
-host as normal ISA and PCI devices.
-.Pp
-ISA cards can either be configured to use ISA Plug and Play
-or to use a particular I/O address and IRQ
-by properly setting the DIP switches on the board.
-(The default
-switch setting is for Plug and Play.)
-The
-.Nm
-driver has Plug and Play support and will work in either configuration,
-however when using a hard-wired I/O address and IRQ, the driver
-configuration and the NIC's switch settings must agree.
-PCI cards
-require no switch settings of any kind and will be automatically
-probed and attached.
-.Pp
-All host/device interaction with the Aironet cards is via programmed I/O.
-The Aironet devices support 802.11 and 802.3 frames, power management,
-BSS (infrastructure) and IBSS (ad-hoc) operation modes.
-The
-.Nm
-driver encapsulates all IP and ARP traffic as 802.11 frames, however
-it can receive either 802.11 or 802.3 frames.
-Transmit speed is
-selectable between 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 11Mbps or
-"auto" (the NIC automatically chooses the best speed).
-.Pp
-By default, the
-.Nm
-driver configures the Aironet card for infrastructure operation.
-.Pp
-For more information on configuring this device, see
-.Xr ifconfig 8 .
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-.Bl -diag
-.It "an%d: init failed"
-The Aironet card failed to become ready after an initialization command was
-issued.
-.It "an%d: failed to allocate %d bytes on NIC"
-The driver was unable to allocate memory for transmit frames in the
-NIC's on-board RAM.
-.It "an%d: device timeout"
-The Aironet card failed to generate an interrupt to acknowledge a transmit
-command.
