NAME

rwn - Ralink RT2700/2800 IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n wireless network device

DESCRIPTION

The rwn IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n wireless driver is a multi-threaded,
loadable, clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting Ralink
RT2700/RT2800 IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n wireless network device.

Configuration

The rwn driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate
and mode. The driver supports only BSS networks (also known as ap or
infrastructure networks) and open (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(8) and wificonfig(8) utilities.
