SGE(4)			    Kernel Interfaces Manual			SGE(4)

NAME
       sge -- Silicon Integrated Systems SiS190/191 Fast/Gigabit Ethernet dri-
       ver

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

	     device miibus
	     device sge

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

	     if_sge_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
       The  sge	 device	 driver	provides support for SiS190 Fast Ethernet con-
       trollers	and SiS191 Fast/Gigabit	Ethernet controllers.

       All LOMs	supported by the sge driver have TCP/UDP/IP  checksum  offload
       for transmit and	receive, TCP segmentation offload (TSO), hardware VLAN
       tag stripping/insertion features.  Due to lack of documentation Wake On
       Lan  (WOL),  Jumbo  frame and an	interrupt moderation mechanism are not
       supported yet.

       The sge driver supports the following media types:

       autoselect   Enable autoselection of the	media type and	options.   The
		    user can manually override the autoselected	mode by	adding
		    media options to rc.conf(5).

       10baseT/UTP  Set	10Mbps operation.

       100baseTX    Set	100Mbps	(Fast Ethernet)	operation.

       1000baseTX   Set	1000baseTX operation over twisted pair.

       The sge driver supports the following media options:

       full-duplex  Force full duplex operation.

       half-duplex  Force half duplex operation.

       For more	information on configuring this	device,	see ifconfig(8).

HARDWARE
       The  sge	device driver provides support for the following Ethernet con-
       trollers:

          SiS190 Fast Ethernet	controller
          SiS191 Fast/Gigabit Ethernet	controller

HISTORY
       The     sge     driver	  was	 written    by	  Alexander    Pohoyda
