18.Sh NAME
19.Nm e1000g
20.Nd Intel 1 Gigabit Client Ethernet Controller
21.Sh SYNOPSIS
22.Pa /dev/net/e1000g*
23.Sh DESCRIPTION
24The
25.Nm
26driver is a GLDv3 NIC driver for Intel 1 Gigabit Ethernet devices which
27are often found as discrete PCI and PCI expresss add-on-cards and built
28into many Intel chipsets and platforms.
29.Pp
30On most models, the device driver supports transmit and receive
31checksumming, 9000 byte jumbo frames, large send offload
32.Pq LSO ,
33LED control and Ethernet Pause frames.
34.Pp
35For each device supported by the
36.Nm
37driver, a character special-file will be created for each instance.
38The first instance would have id 0 and would be named
39.Sy e1000g0
40and found in the file system at
41.Pa /dev/net/e1000g0 .
42This device node supports the Data Link Provider Interface
43.Pq DLPI
44which is documented in
45.Xr dlpi 4P .
46.Xr libdlpi 3LIB
47provides a more usable interface on top of that.
48.Pp
49For administrative control, the device can be manipulated through the
50.Xr dladm 8
51utility.
52.Pp
53The following Ethernet controllers are supported by this driver:

187The
188.Xr igb 4D
189driver supports many other Intel Gigabit parts.
190.Sh CONFIGURATION
191The
192.Pa e1000g.conf
193file contains some user configurable parameters, the format of which
194is documented in
195.Xr driver.conf 5 .
196Generally, the use of
197.Xr dladm 8
198is recommended over editing the configuration file.
