-.Sh NAME
-.Nm lp
-.Nd printer port Internet Protocol driver
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "lp* at ppbus?"
-.Cd options PLIP_DEBUG
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver allows a PC parallel printer port to be used as a point-to-point
-network interface between two similarly configured systems.
-Data is transferred 4 bits at a time, using the printer status
-lines for input: hence there is no requirement for special
-bidirectional hardware and any standard AT-compatible printer port
-with working interrupts may be used.
-.Pp
-During the boot process, for each
-.Xr ppbus 4
-device which is attached and has an interrupt capability, a
-corresponding
-.Nm
-device is attached.
-The
-.Nm
-device is configured using
-.Xr ifconfig 8
-using the options for a point-to-point network interface:
-.Pp
-.Nm ifconfig
-.Ar lp0
-.Ar hostaddress destaddress
-.Op Fl link0|link0
-.Op up|down
-.Op ...
-.Pp
-Configuring a
-.Nm
-device
-.Dq up
-with
-.Xr ifconfig 8
-causes the corresponding
-.Xr ppbus 4
-to be reserved for PLIP until the network interface is configured
-.Dq down .
-.Pp
-The communication protocol is selected by the
-.Cm link0
-flag:
-.Bl -tag -width Fl
-.It Fl link0
-(default)
-Use
-.Fx
-mode (LPIP).
-This is the simpler of the two modes and therefore slightly more
-efficient.
-.It Cm link0
-Use Crynwr/Linux compatible mode (CLPIP).
-This mode has a simulated ethernet packet header, and is easier to
-interface to other types of equipment.
-.El
-.Pp
-The interface MTU defaults to 1500, but may be set to any value.
-Both ends of the link must be configured with the same MTU.
-See
-.Xr ifconfig 8
-for details on configuring network interfaces.
-.Ss Cable Connections
-The cable connecting the two parallel ports should be wired as follows:
-.Bd -literal
-       Pin     Pin     Description
-       2       15      Data0 -\*[Gt] ERROR*
-       3       13      Data1 -\*[Gt] SLCT
-       4       12      Data2 -\*[Gt] PE
-       5       10      Data3 -\*[Gt] ACK*
-       6       11      Data4 -\*[Gt] BUSY
-       15      2       ERROR* -\*[Gt] Data0
-       13      3       SLCT   -\*[Gt] Data1
-       12      4       PE     -\*[Gt] Data2
-       10      5       ACK*   -\*[Gt] Data3
-       11      6       BUSY   -\*[Gt] Data4
-       18-25   18-25   Ground
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Cables with this wiring are widely available as
-.Dq Tn Laplink
-cables, and are often colored yellow.
-.Pp
-The connections are symmetric, and provide 5 lines in each direction
-(four data plus one handshake).
-The two modes use the same wiring, but make a
-different choice of which line to use as handshake.
-.Ss FreeBSD LPIP mode
-The signal lines are used as follows:
-.Bl -tag -width dataxxxxXPinxxX
-.It Em Data0 (Pin 2)
-Data out, bit 0.
-.It Em Data1 (Pin 3)
-Data out, bit 1.
-.It Em Data2 (Pin 4)
-Data out, bit 2.
-.It Em Data3 (Pin 5)
-Handshake out.
-.It Em Data4 (Pin 6)
-Data out, bit 3.
-.It Em ERROR* (pin 15)
-Data in, bit 0.
-.It Em SLCT (pin 13)
-Data in, bit 1.
-.It Em PE (pin 12)
-Data in, bit 2.
-.It Em BUSY (pin 11)
-Data in, bit 3.
-.It Em ACK* (pin 10)
-Handshake in.
-.El
-.Pp
-When idle, all data lines are at zero.
-Each byte is signaled in four steps:  sender writes the 4 most
-significant bits and raises the handshake line; receiver reads the
-4 bits and raises its handshake to acknowledge; sender places the
-4 least significant bits on the data lines and lowers the handshake;
-receiver reads the data and lowers its handshake.
-.Pp
-The packet format has a two-byte header, comprising the fixed values
-0x08, 0x00, immediately followed by the IP header and data.
-.Pp
-The start of a packet is indicated by simply signaling the first
-byte of the header.
-The end of the packet is indicated by inverting the data lines
-(i.e. writing the ones-complement of the previous nibble to be
-transmitted) without changing the state of the handshake.
-.Pp
-Note that the end-of-packet marker assumes that the handshake signal
-and the data-out bits can be written in a single instruction -
-otherwise certain byte values in the packet data would falsely be
-interpreted as end-of-packet.
-This is not a problem for the PC printer port, but requires care
-when implementing this protocol on other equipment.
-.Ss Crynwr/Linux CLPIP mode
-The signal lines are used as follows:
-.Bl -tag -width dataxxxxXPinxxX
-.It Em Data0 (Pin 2)
-Data out, bit 0.
-.It Em Data1 (Pin 3)
-Data out, bit 1.
-.It Em Data2 (Pin 4)
-Data out, bit 2.
-.It Em Data3 (Pin 5)
-Data out, bit 3.
-.It Em Data4 (Pin 6)
-Handshake out.
-.It Em ERROR* (pin 15)
-Data in, bit 0.
-.It Em SLCT (pin 13)
-Data in, bit 1.
-.It Em PE (pin 12)
-Data in, bit 2.
-.It Em ACK* (pin 10)
-Data in, bit 3.
-.It Em BUSY (pin 11)
-Handshake in.
-.El
-.Pp
-When idle, all data lines are at zero.
-Each byte is signaled in four steps:  sender writes the 4 least
-significant bits and raises the handshake line; receiver reads the
-4 bits and raises its handshake to acknowledge; sender places the
-4 most significant bits on the data lines and lowers the handshake;
-receiver reads the data and lowers its handshake.
-[Note that this is the opposite nibble order to LPIP mode].
-.Pp
-Packet format is:
-.Bd -literal
-Length (least significant byte)
-Length (most significant byte)
-12 bytes of supposed MAC addresses (ignored by FreeBSD).
-Fixed byte 0x08
-Fixed byte 0x00
-\*[Lt]IP datagram\*[Gt]
-Checksum byte.
-.Ed
-.Pp
-The length includes the 14 header bytes, but not the length bytes
-themselves nor the checksum byte.
-.Pp
-The checksum is a simple arithmetic sum of all the bytes (again,
-including the header but not checksum or length bytes).
-.Fx
-calculates outgoing checksums, but does not validate incoming ones.
-.Pp
-The start of packet has to be signaled specially, since the line
-chosen for handshake-in cannot be used to generate an interrupt.
-The sender writes the value 0x08 to the data lines, and waits for
-the receiver to respond by writing 0x01 to its data lines.
-The sender then starts signaling the first byte of the packet (the
-length byte).
-.Pp
-End of packet is deduced from the packet length and is not signaled
-specially (although the data lines are restored to the zero, idle
-state to avoid spuriously indicating the start of the next packet).

-.Nx .
-Crynwr packet drivers implemented PLIP for
-.Tn MS-DOS .
-Linux also has a PLIP driver.
-The protocols are know as LPIP
-.Pq Fx
-and CLPIP (Crynwr/Linux) in the documentation and code of this
-port.
-LPIP originally appeared in
-.Fx .
-.Sh AUTHORS
-This manual page is based on the
