+.Sh NAME
+.Nm boca
+.Nd multiplexing serial communications interface
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+For 4-port BB1004 boards and 8-port BB1008 boards:
+.Pp
+.Cd "boca0 at isa? port 0x100 irq 5"
+.Cd "com* at boca?"
+.Pp
+For 16-port BB2016 boards:
+.Pp
+.Cd "boca0 at isa? port 0x100 irq 5"
+.Cd "boca1 at isa? port 0x140 irq 5"
+.Cd "com* at boca?"
+.Pp
+(The BB2016 is functionally equivalent to two BB1008 boards,
+and is configured as such.)
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for BOCA Research BB1004, BB1008, and BB2016
+boards that multiplex together up to four, eight, or sixteen
+.Tn EIA
+.Tn RS-232C
+.Pq Tn CCITT V.28
+communications interfaces.
+.Pp
+Each
+.Nm
+device is the master device for up to eight
+.Nm com
+devices.
+The kernel configuration specifies these
+.Nm com
+devices as slave devices of the
+.Nm
+device, as shown in
+.Sx SYNOPSIS .
+The slave ID given for each
+.Nm com
+device determines which bit in the interrupt multiplexing register is
+tested to find interrupts for that device.
+The
+.Cd port
+specification for the
+.Nm
+device is used to compute the base addresses for the
+.Nm com
+subdevices and the port for the interrupt multiplexing register.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+driver was written by
+.An Charles Hannum ,
+based on the
+.Nm ast
+driver and source code from
+.An David Muir Sharnoff .
+David wishes to acknowledge the assistance of
+.An Jason Venner
+in determining how to use the BOCA boards.
