driver
DESCRIPTION
The rwd IEEE802.11b/g wireless network driver is a multithreaded, load‐
able, clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting Ralink
RT2561/RT2561S/RT2661 IEEE802.11b/g wireless network driver.
CONFIGURATION
The rwd driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and
mode. The driver supports only BSS networks (also known as "ap" or "in‐
frastructure" networks) and "open"(or "open-system") or "shared system"
authentication. For wireless security, WEP encryption, WPA-PSk, and
WPA2-PSK are currently supported. You can perform configuration and
administration tasks using the dladm(1M)and wificonfig(1M) utilities.
