     iy - Intel i82595 Ethernet driver

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     iy0 at isa? port 0x360 irq 7

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The iy device driver supports the Ether-Express PRO/10 card,
and might
     support other ISA cards using the same chip.

     Other  models  of  Intel  network cards are supported by the
fxp(4) and ie(4)
     drivers.

     Various models of these cards come with a different  assortment of connectors:


     AUI/DIX        Standard 15 pin connector

     10Base2        BNC, also known as thin-net

     10BaseT        UTP, also known as twisted pair

     The  default port to use is the port the card autodetects at
ifconfig up
     time.  To choose an alternative port, use the following flag
combinations
     with  ifconfig(8) or in the appropriate hostname.if(5) file.

     -link0 -link1  Use the autodetected port (default).

     -link0  link1  Use the BNC port.

      link0 -link1  Use the AUI port.

      link0  link1  Use the UTP port.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The EtherExpress PRO card has no jumpers to set the address.
Intel supplies
  software  to set the address of the card in software.
You have to
     hardwire this address in your kernel configuration file.
