.Sh NAME
.Nm en
.Nd "device driver for Midway-based ATM interfaces"
.Sh SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel,
place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
.Cd "device en"
.Cd "device atm"
.Cd "device utopia"
.Ed
.Pp
Alternatively, to load the driver as a
module at boot time, place the following line in
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
if_en_load="YES"
.Ed
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
device driver supports Midway-based ATM interfaces including the
Efficient Networks, Inc.\& ENI-155 and Adaptec ANA-59x0.
Midway is an AAL5 SAR (Segmentation and Reassembly) chip.
.Pp
For configuring the card for IP see
.Xr natmip 4 .
.Pp
The following sysctls are recognized by the driver additionally to those
handled by
.Xr utopia 4 :
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Va hw.atm.enX.istats
Contains an array of
.Vt uint32_t
with internal driver statistics.
.It Va hw.atm.enX.debug
This is a bit map of debugging options.
This variable is only available when the driver is compiled with debugging
support.
.El
.Pp
The driver supports the media options
.Cm sdh ,
.Cm noscramb
and
.Cm unassigned
(see
.Xr utopia 4 ) .
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS

The driver extensively uses DMA on PCI.
The first
generation PCI chipsets do not work or exhibit poor performance.
