snap support in linux

Fellows,

I am writing a network driver for 2.4.10 kernel on ARM Integrator. It works almost properly by now(normal telnet, ftp etc works). Now we are tring to do some tests. It seems it refuse to response to the SNAP frame. We are pretty sure the hardware received it and passed it to the driver, the driver then passed it to the kernel. But the problem is the kernel won't reponse to it.

Is this a issue for the network setting of the running Linux box or some thing else? Does SNAP frame work by default or is there some thing need to be done at the driver level? Please help.

Thanks,

David

SNAP and IPX over SNAP were working last time I checked. IP over SNAP is not supported unless someone added it without me noticing

Hi, Alan,

Thanks for the response. I believe the IPX support(therefore SNAP) can be enable with suitable options being enable when compiling the kernel. Is it true for ARM porting? Can you point me to the proper place for a usable IPX configuration tool?

Thanks,
