Network Interface Names
***********************

Each physical interface is identified by a unique device name. Device names have the following syntax:

Driver names on Solaris systems could include ce, hme, bge, e1000g etc. The variable instance-number can have a value from zero to n, depending on how many interfaces of that driver type are installed on the system.

Some typical driver names for this interface are eri, qfe, and hme. When used as the primary network interface, the Fast Ethernet interface has a device name such as eri0 or qfe0

NAME

     cas -- Cassini/Cassini+ (GigaSwift) Ethernet device driver

SYNOPSIS

     cas* at pci? dev ? function ?

     Configuration of PHYs may also be necessary.  See mii(4).

DESCRIPTION

     The cas driver provides support for the Sun Cassini and Cassini+ (GigaSwift) and the National Semiconductor Saturn Ethernet hardware found in
     Sun UltraSPARC machines and Sun GigaSwift PCI cards.

     Cards supported by this driver include:
	   o   Sun Gigaswift Ethernet (SX fibre variants)
	   o   Sun Gigaswift Ethernet (UTP variants)
	   o   Sun quad Gigaswift Ethernet

SEE ALSO

     brgphy(4), gentbi(4), gphyter(4), ifmedia(4), intro(4), mii(4), ifconfig(8)

     Sun Microsystems, Cassini+ ASIC Specification, http://www.sun.com/processors/manuals/cs_plus.pdf.

HISTORY

     The cas driver first appeared in OpenBSD 4.1.  NetBSD support was added in NetBSD 6.0.

AUTHORS

     The cas driver was written for OpenBSD by Mark Kettenis <kettenis@openbsd.org>, based on the gem(4) driver, and ported to NetBSD by Julian
     Coleman <jdc@NetBSD.org>.

BUGS

     The cas driver does not support any of the advanced features of the Cassini chip.

     On the SX fibre variants of the hardware, the link may stay down if media options apart from autoselect are chosen.
