.SH NAME
amd8111s \- AMD-8111 Fast Ethernet Network Adapter driver
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
/dev/amd8111s
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBamd8111s\fR Fast Ethernet driver is a multi-threaded, loadable,
clonable,  GLD-based  STREAMS  driver supporting  the Data Link Provider
Interface, \fBdlpi\fR(7P), on the AMD-8111 Fast Ethernet Network Adapter.
.sp
.LP
The \fBamd8111s\fR driver functions include controller initialization, frame
transmit and receive, promiscuous and multicast support, and error recovery and
reporting.
.SH APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE
.sp
.LP
The cloning, character-special device \fB/dev/amd8111\fR is used to access all
AMD-8111 Fast Ethernet devices installed within the system.
.sp
.LP
The \fBamd8111s\fR driver is managed by the \fBdladm\fR(1M) command  line
utility, which allows VLANs to be defined on top of amd8111s instances and for
amd8111s instances to be aggregated.  See \fBdladm\fR(1M) for more details.
.SH CONFIGURATION
.sp
.LP
By default, the \fBamd8111s\fR driver performs auto-negotiation to select the
link speed and mode. Link speed and mode can be any of the following:
.sp
.LP
100 Mbps, full-duplex.
.sp
.LP
100 Mbps, half-duplex.
.sp
.LP
10 Mbps, full-duplex.
.sp
.LP
10 Mbps, half-duplex.
