LLC2(7)                                                                LLC2(7)



NAME
     llc2 - DLPI multiplexor-driver

DESCRIPTION
     llc2 is the Data Link Provider Interface (DLPI) (dlpi(7)) STREAMS
     multiplexor-driver which provides the logical link control (LLC) for
     Local Area Networks (LAN) (e.g. Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI) as specified
     in IEEE 802.2.

     The multiplexor supports all LLC type 1 and type 2 procedures.

     /dev/llc2 is the interface to the upper multiplexor of DLPI.  It provides
     a mechnism for the Data Link Service (DLS) user to access different LAN
     media (DLS providers). Examples of the DLS user are X.25, OSI, and SNA.

     The driver does not have any accessible user-level interface.
