.Nm mos
|
|
.Nd Moschip MCS7730/MCS7830/MCS7832 USB Ethernet 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 uhci"
|
|
.Cd "device ohci"
|
|
.Cd "device ehci"
|
|
.Cd "device usb"
|
|
.Cd "device miibus"
|
|
.Cd "device mos"
|
|
.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_mos_load="YES"

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for USB Ethernet adapters based on the
|
|
Moschip MCS7730/MCS7830/MCS7832 chipset.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The adapters that contain the Moschip MCS7730/MCS7830/MCS7832 chipset
|
|
will operate at 100Base-TX and full-duplex.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The Moschip contains a 10/100
|
|
Ethernet MAC with MII interface and is designed to work with both
|
|
Ethernet and HomePNA transceivers.
|
|
Although designed to interface with
|
|
100Mbps peripherals, this only works with USB 2.0. The existing USB 1.0
|
|
standard specifies a maximum transfer speed of 12Mbps.
|
|
USB 1.0 Users should therefore not expect to actually achieve 100Mbps speeds
|
|
with these devices.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The Moschip supports a 64-bit multicast hash table, single perfect
|
|
filter entry for the station address and promiscuous mode.
|
|
Packets are
|
|
received and transmitted over separate USB bulk transfer endpoints.
|
|
.Pp
