Raptor card. The first Raptor card seen by
the system will be

/dev/raptor0

and the

second will be

For Raptor 2500, the device name will be

must correspond to the same card.

ture available on Raptor cards that provides
multi-layer capability. Available MOX

See Section 5.6 for more details on
configuring MOX.

If more than one Raptor 2000 or Raptor 2500 card is installed,
a separate

Device

section must be created for each card.

Each

Device

section should have a unique

Identifier

BusID

and

Device

option fields. Other fields should remain

unchanged. For more information please refer to Section 5.5.

use for this screen. It should match the
Identifier specified in one of the

Device

sections.

If multiple Raptor cards are installed, additional

Screen

sections should be created. Each

section should

have a unique identifier. For more information please refer to
Section 5.5.
