First you will have to create the net interface. Open the
/dev/ost/netx device, where x is the number of your card (usually 0).
Now use the ioctl NET_ADD_IF with a struct dvb_net_if set to the correct
parameters (have a look at ost/net.h).
Use ifconfig to set dvbx_0.

In order to find out how to do this you would have to had read
driver/dvb_net.c and ost/include/ost/net.h. Where all these conspicuous
names containing "net" (no fishing here) should have aroused some suspicion.

It`s all there for those who look (not to say: "Use the source Luke").
