.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ex
|
|
.Nd "Ethernet device driver for the Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 and Pro/10+"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel,
|
|
place the following line in your
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device ex"
|
|
.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_ex_load="YES"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for Ethernet adapters based on the Intel
|
|
i82595 chip.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On the ISA bus, the card will be searched for in the
|
|
I/O address range 0x200 - 0x3a0.
|
|
The IRQ will be read from the EEPROM on the card.
|
|
For correct operation Plug-N-Play support should be disabled.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On the PC Card bus, the card will be automatically recognized and
|
|
configured.
|
|
.Sh HARDWARE
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports the following Ethernet adapters:

|
|
.Bl -diag
|
|
.It "ex%d: Intel EtherExpress Pro/10, address %6D, connector %s"
|
|
The device probe found an installed card, and was able to correctly install
|
|
the device driver.
|
|
.It "ex%d: WARNING: board's EEPROM is configured for IRQ %d, using %d"
|
|
The device probe detected that the board is configured for a different
|
|
interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
|
|
.It "ex%d: invalid IRQ."
|
|
The device probe detected an invalid IRQ setting.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
Currently the driver does not support multicast.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The Silicom EtherSerial card's serial port does not currently work.
|
|
The Olicom OC2232 PC Card should work with the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver, but is currently completely broken.
