34.Os
35.Sh NAME
36.Nm ukphy
37.Nd generic/unknown IEEE 802.3u Ethernet PHY
38.Sh SYNOPSIS
39.Cd "ukphy* at mii?"
40.Sh DESCRIPTION
41The
42.Nm
43driver supports the basic functionality of most Ethernet PHYs.
44.Sh SEE ALSO
45.Xr ifmedia 4 ,
46.Xr intro 4 ,
47.Xr mii 4 ,
48.Xr ifconfig 8
49.Sh CAVEATS
50In areas where the programming interface for PHYs differ, such
51as detecting the currently active medium, this driver often
52does not work optimally.
53When available, it is best to use a PHY-specific driver.
