------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WANPIPE(tm) Multiprotocol WAN Driver for Linux WAN Router ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Release 3.1.0 January 30, 1997 Author: Gene Kozin Copyright (c) 1995-1997 Sangoma Technologies Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ INTRODUCTION WANPIPE(tm) is a family of intelligent muliprotocol WAN communication adapters for personal computers (ISA bus) designed to provide PC connectivity to various communication links, such as leased lines and public data networks, at speeds up to T1/E1 using variety of synchronous communications protocols, including frame relay, PPP, X.25, SDLC, etc. WANPIPE driver together with Linux WAN Router module allows you to build relatively inexpensive, yet high-prformance multiprotocol WAN router. For more information about Linux WAN Router please read file Documentation/networking/wan-router.txt. You must also obtain WAN Tools package to be able to use Linux WAN Router and WANPIPE driver. The package is available via the Internet from Sangoma Technologies' anonymous FTP server: ftp.sangoma.com/pub/linux/wantools-X.Y.Z.tgz For technical questions and/or comments please e-mail to genek@compuserve.com.
