TX(4) FreeBSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual TX(4) NAME tx -- SMC 83c17x Fast Ethernet device driver SYNOPSIS device miibus device tx DESCRIPTION The tx driver provides support for the Ethernet adapters based on the SMC 83c17x (EPIC) chips. These are mostly SMC 9432 series cards. The tx driver supports the following media types (depending on card's capabilities): autoselect Enable autonegotiation (default) 100baseFX Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) fiber optic operation 100baseTX Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) twisted pair operation 10baseT/UTP Set 10Mbps on 10baseT port 10base2/BNC Set 10Mbps on 10base2 port The tx driver supports the following media options: full-duplex Set full-duplex operation Driver supports oversized ethernet packets (up to 1600 bytes). Refer to the ifconfig(8) man page on setting the interface's MTU. The old ``ifconfig tx0 linkN'' method of configuration is not supported. VLAN (IEEE 802.1Q) support The tx driver supports the VLAN operation (using vlan(4) inteface) with- out decreasing the MTU on the vlan(4) interfaces. DIAGNOSTICS tx%d: device timeout %d packets The device stops responding. Device and driver reset follows this error. tx%d: PCI fatal error occured (%s) One of following errors occured: PCI Target Abort, PCI Master Abort, Data Parity Error or Address Parity Error. Device and driver reset follows this error. tx%d: cannot allocate mbuf header/cluster Cannot allocate memory for received packet. Packet thrown away. tx%d: can't stop %s DMA While reseting, driver failed to stop device correctly. BUGS The multicast packets filtering is not supported.
