LU-ATX, the D-Link DSB-650TX, the 52SMC 2202USB, and those LinkSys USB10T adapters that contain the 53AN986 Pegasus chipset. 54The LinkSys USB10T adapters that contain the AN986 Pegasus chipset 55will operate at 100Base-TX and full-duplex. 56.Pp 57The Pegasus contains a 10/100 58ethernet MAC with MII interface and is designed to work with both 59ethernet and HomePNA transceivers. 60Although designed to interface with 61100Mbps peripherals, the existing USB standard specifies a maximum 62transfer speed of 12Mbps. 63Users should therefore not expect to actually 64achieve 100Mbps speeds with these devices. 65.Pp 66The Pegasus supports a 64-bit multicast hash table, single perfect 67filter entry for the station address and promiscuous mode. 68Packets are 69received and transmitted over separate USB bulk transfer endpoints. 70.Pp 71The 72.Nm 73driver supports the following media types: 74.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 75.It autoselect 76Enable autoselection of the media type and options. 77The user can manually override 78the autoselected mode by adding media options to the 79.Pa /etc/rc.conf 80file. 81.It 10baseT/UTP 82Set 10Mbps operation. 83The 84.Ar mediaopt 85option can also be used to enable 86.Ar full-duplex 87operation. 88Not specifying 89.Ar full duplex 90implies 91.Ar half-duplex 92mode. 93.It 100baseTX 94Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) operation. 95The 96.Ar mediaopt 97option can also be used to enable 98.Ar full-duplex 99operation. 100Not specifying 101.Ar full duplex 102implies 103.Ar half-duplex 104mode. 105.El 106.Pp 107The 108.Nm 109driver supports the following media options: 110.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 111.It full-duplex 112Force full duplex operation. 113The interface will operate in 114half duplex mode if this media option is not specified. 115.El 116.Pp 117For more information on configuring this device, see 118.Xr ifconfig 8 . 119.Sh DIAGNOSTICS 120.Bl -diag 121.It "aue%d: watchdog timeout" 122A packet was queued for transmission and a transmit command was 123issued, however the device failed to acknowledge the transmission 124before a timeout expired. 125.It "aue%d: no memory for rx list" 126The driver failed to allocate an mbuf for the receiver ring. 127.El 128.Sh SEE ALSO 129.Xr arp 4 , 130.Xr ifmedia 4 , 131.Xr miibus 4 , 132.Xr netintro 4 , 133.Xr ng_ether 4 , 134.Xr ifconfig 8 135.Rs 136.%T ADMtek AN986 data sheet 137.%O http://www.admtek.com.tw 138.Re 139.Sh HISTORY 140The 141.Nm 142device driver first appeared in 143.Fx 4.0 . 144.Sh AUTHORS 145The 146.Nm 147driver was written by 148.An Bill Paul Aq wpaul@ee.columbia.edu . 149
