.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm de
|
|
.Nd DEC DC21x4x Ethernet device driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "device de"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for the Ethernet adapters based on the Digital
|
|
Equipment DC21x4x based self-contained Ethernet chips.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It supports the DEC PCI DE435 card, DEC EISA DE425, DEC DE450, DEC DE500,
|
|
SMC 8432, 9332 and 9334, Cogent EM100FX and EM440TX, Asante,
|
|
ZNYX ZX3xx, and others based on the 21040 and 21041 Ethernet controllers or
|
|
the 21140[A], 21141, 21142 and 21143 Fast 100Mbps Ethernet controllers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports the following media types:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
|
|
.It autoselect
|
|
Enable autoselection of the media type and options
|
|
.It 10baseT/UTP
|
|
Set 10Mbps operation on the 10baseT port
|
|
.It 10base2/BNC
|
|
Set 10Mbps operation on the BNC port
|
|
.It 10base5/AUI
|
|
Set 10Mbps operation on the AUI port
|
|
.It 100baseTX
|
|
Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) operation
|
|
.It 100baseFX
|
|
Set 100Mbps operation
|
|
.It 100baseT4
|
|
Set 100Mbps operation (4-pair cat-3 cable)
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports the following media options:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
|
|
.It full-duplex
|
|
Set full duplex operation
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that the media types available depend on the particular card in use.
|
|
Some cards are explicitly programmed to a particular media type by a
|
|
setup utility and are not changeable.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Use the
|
|
.Xr ifconfig 8
|
|
command an in particular the
|
|
.Fl m
|
|
flag to list the supported media types for your particular card.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The old
|
|
.Dq ifconfig linkN
|
|
method of configuration is not supported.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.Bl -diag
|
|
.It "de%d: waking device from sleep/snooze mode"
|
|
The 21041 and 21140A chips support suspending the operation of the card.
|
|
.It "de%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ of %d"
|
|
The device probe detected that the board is configured for a different
|
|
interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
|
|
.It "de%d: not configured; limit of %d reached or exceeded"
|
|
There is a limit of 32
|
|
.Nm
|
|
devices allowed in a single machine.
|
|
.It "de%d: not configured; 21040 pass 2.0 required (%d.%d found)"
|
|
.It "de%d: not configured; 21140 pass 1.1 required (%d.%d found)"
|
|
Certain revisions of the chipset are not supported by this driver.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh CAVEATS
|
|
Since the 21040 is available on both EISA and PCI boards, one must be careful
|
|
in how defines the 21040 in the kernel config file.
