- - - - Describes the basics of a Boca 16-port Serial Card (Boca 2016) - used with Linux. - - 2001-??-01 - - - 1.0 - 1997-07-08 - DHD - - - - Joy - Yokley - Converted document from HTML to DocBook v4.1 (SGML) - - - - - Introduction - This HOWTO is being maintained by David H Dennis, - david@amazing.com, to try and help any other individuals who may have acquired - a BocaBoard, stared at it and found out that it didn't seem to do - anything. - A very high percentage of those interested in the BocaBoard are - also interested in becoming Internet Service Providers (ISPs). If you are one - of them, please feel free to drop by my web site, - http://www.amazing.com, - and check out my Inet-Access FAQ, over 9,000 lines detailing how to hook up to - the net and how to make your Internet provider business succeed in these most - interesting times. - - - - Warning - Multi-Port serial cards, such as the BocaBoard, are all but dead. - If you are in business as an Internet Service Provider (ISP), you will not want - to use any of these devices, because the new 56k modem standards will not - support them. Instead, you need digital modem/terminal server combinations such - as the Livingston PM3 ™ , Cisco 5200 ™ or US Robotics Total - Control ™. Otherwise, you simply won't be competitive in major markets. - Users want high speeds; you won't be able to provide them with a BocaBoard or - other multi-port serial card. - Even as a multi-port serial card, the BocaBoard is hopelessly - obsolete. The overwhelming majority of people who want to buy a BocaBoard would - be better off getting a accelerated card such as the Cyclades™ or - Rocketport™. (When last I looked, Rocketport™ was a better board, - but Cyclades™ had the most stable kernel support). Accelerated cards use - less of the CPU of your machine, and so you can support more ports per computer - with less performance degradation. - That being said, perhaps you own one of these devices and want to - make use of it, or perhaps you are planning an ISP based on a low-cost business - model that basically means the use of cast-off equipment from others. In that - case, the information in this document should be useful for you. But again, I - repeat: The person who buys a new BocaBoard at this point probably needs a few - more clues before starting his ISP or other venture. - - - What do you need to install a BocaBoard? - - - The board itself and its manuals - - - Your Linux source tree - - - Patience - - - - - The Basic Procedure - - Recompiling the Kernel - The first step is to change your kernel so that it knows you - have a BocaBoard. Unfortunately, this is not a part of the configure script; - you must go in and modify the source by hand. In the older versions of the - kernel, this consists of putting the following line at the beginning of - linux/drivers/char/serial.c: - #define CONFIG_BOCA 1 - As of some kernel version or another, this has changed. To make - it work with newer kernels, search for the - "BOCA_FLAGS" #define in - serial.c, and change the value to - #define BOCA_FLAGS ASYNC_BOOT_AUTOCONF - - You can then recompile your kernel using the instructions - included with the source tree. I recommend running the new kernel from a floppy - until you're very sure it works; otherwise, the procedure for getting back your - system is mind-numbing at best. - At least to me, digging into my kernel and re-compiling it was - quite a stressful venture! Relax; as long as you copy it to a floppy, your new - kernel is completely harmless. It won't bite! Honest! :-) - - - Installing the Card - The default address on both the card and the Linux software for - the configuration is 0x100; leave that alone. Set the IRQ on the card to Linux - default of 12. If you want to change the IRQ, you will have to search for - "BOCA_FLAGS" in the file. You will find lines like this: - { BASE_BAUD, 0x100, 12, BOCA_FLAGS }, /* ttyS16 - */ - { BASE_BAUD, 0x108, 12, BOCA_FLAGS }, /* ttyS17 - */ - You can change the IRQ from 12 by changing the 12 to any valid - IRQ. I have not tried this, however. - - - Telling Linux about Your Card - Once you have compiled your new kernel, switch off the machine - and install the card. Then, turn your machine on with the new kernel floppy in - the drive. If the installation succeeded, you should see all sorts of strange - stuff about 16550 UARTS being connected to ttyS16-ttyS32. The system will then - come up normally. - The odds are pretty good that you don't actually have entries in - /dev for those lines. Remember that they start at 16 and go on to 32. If you - look at the source code, you'll see why; support for other cards is included in - the code for lower line numbers. Creating them is pretty simple, once you know - the trick. - To create entries for dial-out lines (where you call out), type: - - #mknod /dev/cuaxx c 4 N - n = 64 + {line number}. The C indicates that this is a character - mode device. For example, to create the first couple of lines on your board, - type: - #mknod /dev/cua16 c 4 80 - #mknod /dev/cua17 c 4 81 - To create dial-in lines (where users call you), type: - #mknod /dev/ttySxx c 5 n - where N is the same as described above. For example, to create - the first couple of lines on your BocaBoard, type: - #mknod /dev/ttyS16 c 5 80 - #mknod /dev/ttyS17 c 5 81 - It is recommended that you create both dial in and dial out - lines for each port, so that you have maximum flexibility. It turns out to be - very handy to call another line of your system by activating one of your lines - as dial-out and calling your main number. I've done this already and it works - great! It's most useful for checking how things look "on the other side of the - fence"; I used it to find out how my software looked at 2400bps. (It's slower - than the Linux console. A LOT slower, in fact). - Once you've finished with this, you can add entries to your - inittab file in the same way as you would for a standard ttySx entry, and the - modems or terminals should come up! - - - - Possible Problems - If you have problems, you may find that this is due to conflicts - between your BocaBoard and systems with dual IDE controllers. According to - Kevin Traas: -
- Is the kernel recognising the board? (i.e. Right at the start of - the boot process, all sixteen ports should be listed on screen with ttySxx, I/O - Port, and IRQ identified.) Also, - setserial -bg ttyS* should list *every* port in - your system. - By default, the BB2016 is configured to use IO Ports between - 0100 and 017f. This creates problems on systems with two IDE controllers. The - second controller, ide1, uses 0170-0177 which falls into this range. Big - problems!!! - So, the solution, in my cases, is to go with an IO base of 0200 - through 027f. I haven't had any conflicts in this region; however, you may want - to check you system to be sure. (run - cat /proc/ioports - better run - cat /proc/interrupts to make sure IRQ 12 isn't - used either.) - Once you've found an IO range and IRQ that isn't used, you'll - have to change the jumpers on the BB2016 and edit - /usr/src/linux/drivers/char/serial.c to reflect the new - settings. Then, compile the kernel and install as per normal. -
- - Additional Information and Service Comments - If you want to use your new Boca card with any standard DB-25 - RS232 connector, you will have to get a special breakout box, which costs about - $80. The card itself comes with a breakout box that plugs into the card through - a truly formidable cable. It then supplies phone-like cables for the ports. The - special $80 box has phone-like cables that plug into the breakout box included - with the Boca card; you can then plug your modems or terminals into standard - RS-232 connectors on the box. Unless you actually have a system that accepts - the phone-like connectors, you should add the price of the box to the cost of - the card when comparing it to other alternatives. - I got my Boca 2016 card through a special wholesale deal that I - don't think many people will be able to reproduce. It was available quickly. - However, the breakout box for RS-232 took about two weeks to ship. You should - be aware of your need for this box before you acquire the card. The 2016 board - was $235 and the additional box was $79.95. - I've heard that this breakout box is no longer available, and - that now people just have special cables made. I'm not sure how you would go - about doing this, though. - Only one port of my first Boca 2016 worked. I called Boca, - expecting to hear a long string of questions and advice. When they said, - "Linux? What's that?" I feared the worst. However, upon hearing my actual - problem, they cheerfully told me that the card was defective and I should send - it back; full 5-year factory warranty, 30-days exchange. I was struck by how - cheery the lady was. It was as though they were expecting the worst, and very - kindly making the most of it! - I had my hardware guy exchange the card. Unfortunately, the - cards were back-ordered and they took about two more weeks to give me my new - card. I have to say that I was quite annoyed at this, since I was anxiously - chomping at the bit to get this thing up and running. - Some people have problems with ports past the first eight. I - have tested my card up to port 11 and all the ports appear to be working. Boca - Research quality control may be lacking; I would recommend that people with - troubles with the card call Boca and deal with them directly. I suspect that if - I'd exchanged the card directly through the factory I would have had better - service than through my dealer. The factory people were all quite nice and - eager to please. - Right now, I have only four phone lines. I bought the 16-port - card for two reasons: because it has modem control (unlike the smaller ones), - and in anticipation of future expansion. - Some additional information on this subject from Kevin Traas of - Baan Business Systems™: -
- BTW, I've used the BB2016 several times and found them to work - really well under Linux. I'm extremely happy with them. They perform very well, - are very inexpensive, and are reliable. They claim 115200 bps per port. I've - got a unique situation whereby I've got two systems with a PPP serial link - between them. I'm running this link at 115200 and I experience almost 0% error - rate (with hundreds of thousands of packets transmitted). My next step is to - implement EQL and additional PPP links between the boxes to increase the - bandwidth. We'll see how it goes. - One final note. Contrary to the suggestion in the HOWTO, I - build my own cables for the BB2016 (they've got RJ ports on them). At first, I - "dabbled" with RJ45-8 conductor plugs, but the BB2016 has RJ48-10 conductor - jacks, so to get full modem support, I ended up going that route. - I now run all 10 wires between the BB2016 and my modems. It - works great! No problems, no regrets! The only initial problem I had was - finding a source for RJ48 plugs, 10 conductor wire, and RJ48 to DB25 - adapters. None of these are very cheap due to the low demand. Oh, yeah, and - you need an RJ48 crimper as well. - If you want, I can build these cables for you and send them - to you. If you're interested, e-mail me and I'll let you know pricing, etc. I - found building my own was cheaper than the adapter that is mentioned in the - HOWTO - which I couldn't find a source for anyway. -
- I believe the adapter mentioned in this document is no longer - being manufacturered, leaving cables such as your own the only remaining way of - connecting the device. - - - - Acknowledgements - Kevin Traas has issued a helpful update to this FAQ that contains a - major correction to the information on - mknod. He is also standing in as a new source for - cables for the device. - The information here was obtained by begging many people for help. - Unfortunately, I have forgotten their names due to a pressing need for disk - space on my Netcom account. :-( Nonetheless, I thank them very much for their - assistance when things looked blackest. This is my way of paying some of that - back. - -
