.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm cxgb
|
|
.Nd "Chelsio T3 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter driver"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel,
|
|
place the following lines in your
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device firmware"
|
|
.Cd "device cxgb"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To load the driver as a
|
|
module at boot time, place the following line in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
if_cxgb_load="YES"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports Transmit/Receive checksum offload,
|
|
Jumbo Frames, TCP segmentation offload (TSO), Large Receive Offload (LRO),
|
|
VLAN hardware insertion / extraction, and VLAN checksum offload.
|
|
For further hardware information, see
|
|
.Pa http://www.chelsio.com/ .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For questions related to hardware requirements,
|
|
refer to the documentation supplied with your Chelsio T3 adapter.
|
|
All hardware requirements listed apply to use with
|
|
.Fx .
|
|
.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
|
|
For more information on configuring this device, see
|
|
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
|
|
.Sh HARDWARE
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit Ethernet adapters based on the T3 and T3B chipset:
