|
||||
Intel(R) PRO/1000 gigabit ethernet driver for the FreeBSD operating system
|
||||
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.Cd "device em"
|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
driver provides support for PCI gigabit ethernet adapters based on
|
||||
the Intel 82542, 82543 and 82544 ethernet controller chip.
|
||||
The driver supports Transmit/Receive checksum offload
|
||||
and jumbo frames only on 82543 and 82544-based adapters.
|
||||
For a list of supported adapters, see the README
|
||||
included with the driver.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
For questions related to hardware requirements,
|
||||
refer to the documentation supplied with your Intel PRO/1000 adapter.
|
||||
All hardware requirements listed apply to use with FreeBSD.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Support for jumbo frames is provided via the interface MTU setting.
|
||||
Selecting an MTU larger than 1500 bytes with the
|
||||
.Xr ifconfig 8
|
||||
utility configures the adapter to receive and transmit jumbo frames.
|
||||
The maximum MTU size for jumbo frames is 9000.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
driver supports the following media types:
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

||||
.It autoselect
|
||||
Enables auto-negotiation for speed and duplex.
|
||||
.It 10baseT/UTP
|
||||
Sets 10Mbps operation.
