31*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.Sh DESCRIPTION
32*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'AmoreThe
33*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.Nm
34*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amoredriver provides support for the Centaur and Comet families of Fast Ethernet
35*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'AmorePCI controllers originally produced by ADMtek and Infineon.
36*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.Lp
37*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'AmoreThese devices generally support the standard Fast Ethernet features, including
38*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, both full and half duplex operation, IEEE 802.3
39*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amoreautonegotiation, etc.  They also support full size MTUs (1500 bytes),
40*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amoreeven when used with VLANs.  Most of them also support flow control.
41*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.
42*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.Lp
43*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'AmoreThe device driver supports the
44*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.Xr ieee802.3 5
45*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amoreproperties, which can be configured with
46*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.Xr dladm 1M .
47*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.
48*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.\" The driver also has a "forcefiber" driver.conf setting, but this is for
49*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.\" very very obscure hardware, and we are not documenting this option
50*a7d6e28eSGarrett D'Amore.\" for now.
