IE(4) BSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual IE(4)
NAME
ie -- Ethernet device driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:
device ie
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
if_ie_load="YES"
In /boot/device.hints:
hint.ie.0.at="isa"
hint.ie.0.port="0x300"
hint.ie.0.irq="5"
hint.ie.0.maddr="0xd0000"
HARDWARE
The ie driver provides supports the following 8 and 16bit ISA Ethernet cards that are based on the Intel i82586 chip:
o 3COM 3C507
o AT&T EN100
o AT&T Starlan 10
o AT&T Starlan Fiber
o Intel EtherExpress 16
o RACAL Interlan NI5210
DIAGNOSTICS
ie%d: unknown board type code %d An i82586 chip was found, but the driver was unable to determine the actual board type during the probe.
ie%d: kernel configured maddr %x doesn't match board configured maddr %x The device probe detected a different maddr than the one specified
in the kernel configuration file.
ie%d: can't find shared memory The device probe could not access the shared memory to determine its size.
ie%d: kernel configured msize %d doesn't match board configured msize %d The device probe found a different size for the shared memory than
the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
ie%d: kernel configured irq %d doesn't match board configured irq %d The device probe detected that the board is configured for a different
interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
ie%d: reset The Intel i82586 had to be reset by the driver.
ie%d: transceiver problem The driver has detected a problem with the Ethernet transceiver. This is usually due to a loose or broken trans-
ceiver cable when using an external transceiver. When you experience this problem with an on-card transceiver your card may be incorrectly
jumpered for to use an external transceiver. Worst case your on-board transceiver may be broken.
ie%d: TDR detected an open %d clocks away The driver detected an open circuit in the Ethernet cable. Check your coax cable and terminator
resistors.
ie%d: TDR detected a short %d clocks away The driver detected a short circuit in the Ethernet cable. Check your coax cable and terminator
resistors.
ie%d: TDR returned unknown status %x The driver got an unknown status from the card during the Ethernet cable test.
ie%d: multicast address setup command failed The card could not be put into multicast mode.
ie%d: configure command failed The card refused to respond correctly during configuration.
ie%d: individual address setup command failed The programming of the Ethernet (MAC) address failed.
CAVEATS
The Racal Interlan NI5210 comes in variants with 8 and 16 kbytes of shared memory. It is strongly advisable to use the 16 kbyte variant.
You can upgrade your 8 kbyte card to 16 kbyte by adding an additional RAM chip.
