ENIC(4) 		     Kernel Interfaces Manual			 ENIC(4)

NAME
     enic -- VIC Ethernet NIC driver

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device iflib
	   device enic

     To load the driver as a module at run-time, run the following command as
     root:

	   kldload if_enic

     To load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following lines in
     loader.conf(5):

	   if_enic_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The enic driver provides support for Cisco Virtual Interface Card.  Support
     is  limited  to basic network connectivity.  Media is controlled by the NIC
     itself since there can be multiple virtual PCI NIC devices exposed  to  the
     PCI bus.

HARDWARE
     The enic driver should supports all known Cisco VIC cards.

CONFIGURATION
     The  enic	network  interface  is	configured  using  ifconfig(8)	and  the
     sysctl(8) tree at dev.enic.<N>.  All configurable	entries  are  also  tun-
     ables,  and can be put directly into the loader.conf(5) for persistent con-
     figuration.

SEE ALSO
     ifconfig(8)

HISTORY
     The enic device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 14.0.

AUTHORS
     The enic driver was written by Cisco UCS team based of the DPDK driver.
