Operating Systems Solaris Help with Stubborn Sun Ultra Enterprise 450 Post 302673111 by gandolf989 on Tuesday 17th of July 2012 12:53:07 PM

10 years ago I was able to reset the firmware password on a sparc station 5 by buying a new NVRAM chip, and ultimately got the sparc station 5 working. I'm guessing that NVRAM holds its contents without power.

If you want to play with Sun hardware you should look for a sunfire T2000 or a sunfire V245 online, they both come standard with either DVD or CDROM drives, they each hold at least 6 SCSI drives, they are likely to have more memory than an E450. The T2000 has 16 core cool threads processors, so 2 CPU's will give you 32 crappy cores!!! ;-) Both servers will probably use less power than an E450. If you want a retro end table, the E450 would be ideal!!! :-)

IEEE80211_STA_I(9) Internals ENUM IEEE80211_STA_I(9) NAME
enum_ieee80211_sta_info_flags - Stations flags SYNOPSIS
enum ieee80211_sta_info_flags { WLAN_STA_AUTH, WLAN_STA_ASSOC, WLAN_STA_PS_STA, WLAN_STA_AUTHORIZED, WLAN_STA_SHORT_PREAMBLE, WLAN_STA_WME, WLAN_STA_WDS, WLAN_STA_CLEAR_PS_FILT, WLAN_STA_MFP, WLAN_STA_BLOCK_BA, WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER, WLAN_STA_PSPOLL, WLAN_STA_TDLS_PEER, WLAN_STA_TDLS_PEER_AUTH, WLAN_STA_UAPSD, WLAN_STA_SP, WLAN_STA_4ADDR_EVENT, WLAN_STA_INSERTED, WLAN_STA_RATE_CONTROL, WLAN_STA_TOFFSET_KNOWN, WLAN_STA_MPSP_OWNER, WLAN_STA_MPSP_RECIPIENT }; CONSTANTS
WLAN_STA_AUTH Station is authenticated. WLAN_STA_ASSOC Station is associated. WLAN_STA_PS_STA Station is in power-save mode WLAN_STA_AUTHORIZED Station is authorized to send/receive traffic. This bit is always checked so needs to be enabled for all stations when virtual port control is not in use. WLAN_STA_SHORT_PREAMBLE Station is capable of receiving short-preamble frames. WLAN_STA_WME Station is a QoS-STA. WLAN_STA_WDS Station is one of our WDS peers. WLAN_STA_CLEAR_PS_FILT Clear PS filter in hardware (using the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT control flag) when the next frame to this station is transmitted. WLAN_STA_MFP Management frame protection is used with this STA. WLAN_STA_BLOCK_BA Used to deny ADDBA requests (both TX and RX) during suspend/resume and station removal. WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER driver requires keeping this station in power-save mode logically to flush frames that might still be in the queues WLAN_STA_PSPOLL Station sent PS-poll while driver was keeping station in power-save mode, reply when the driver unblocks. WLAN_STA_TDLS_PEER Station is a TDLS peer. WLAN_STA_TDLS_PEER_AUTH This TDLS peer is authorized to send direct packets. This means the link is enabled. WLAN_STA_UAPSD Station requested unscheduled SP while driver was keeping station in power-save mode, reply when the driver unblocks the station. WLAN_STA_SP Station is in a service period, so don't try to reply to other uAPSD trigger frames or PS-Poll. WLAN_STA_4ADDR_EVENT 4-addr event was already sent for this frame. WLAN_STA_INSERTED This station is inserted into the hash table. WLAN_STA_RATE_CONTROL rate control was initialized for this station. WLAN_STA_TOFFSET_KNOWN toffset calculated for this station is valid. WLAN_STA_MPSP_OWNER local STA is owner of a mesh Peer Service Period. WLAN_STA_MPSP_RECIPIENT local STA is recipient of a MPSP. DESCRIPTION
These flags are used with struct sta_info's flags member, but only indirectly with set_sta_flag and friends. AUTHOR
