31*bbf21555SRichard Lowe.Sh DESCRIPTION
32*bbf21555SRichard LoweThe
33*bbf21555SRichard Lowe.Nm
34*bbf21555SRichard Lowedriver provides support for the Intel PRO/100 family of Fast Ethernet
35*bbf21555SRichard LowePCI controllers.
36*bbf21555SRichard LoweThis includes support for Intel 82558, 82559, 82550, and 82551 parts, as well as
37*bbf21555SRichard Lowecertain controllers found on certain Intel southbridge controllers (ICH2 and
38*bbf21555SRichard LoweICH3).
39*bbf21555SRichard Lowe.Lp
40*bbf21555SRichard LoweThese devices generally support the standard Fast Ethernet features, including
41*bbf21555SRichard Lowe10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, both full and half duplex operation, IEEE 802.3
42*bbf21555SRichard Loweautonegotiation, etc.
43*bbf21555SRichard LoweThey also support full size MTUs (1500 bytes), even when used with VLANs.
44*bbf21555SRichard LoweSome of them also support flow control.
45*bbf21555SRichard Lowe.
46*bbf21555SRichard Lowe.Lp
47*bbf21555SRichard LoweThe device driver supports the
48*bbf21555SRichard Lowe.Xr ieee802.3 7
49*bbf21555SRichard Loweproperties, which can be configured with
