The \fBpcn\fR driver is a multi\-threaded, loadable, clonable GLDv3\-based
STREAMS driver supporting the Data Link Provider Interface \fBdlpi\fR(7P) for
! the AMD PCnet family of Ethernet controllers\.
.SH "APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE"
The \fBpcn\fR driver can be used as either a "style 1" or a "style 2" Data Link
! Service Provider\. Physical points of attachment (PPAs) are interpreted as the
instance number of the \fBpcn\fR controller as assigned by the
! operating environment\.

.SH "CONFIGURATION"
- .sp
- .LP
The \fBpcn\fR driver performs auto-negotiation to select the link speed and
! mode\. Link sped may be 100Mbps full\-duplex, 100Mbps half\-duplex,
10Mbps full\-duplex, or 10Mbps half\-duplex, depending on the hardware
! adapter type\. See the \fIIEEE802.3\fR standard for more information\.

The capabilities advertised by the \fBpcn\fR device can be set using
! \fBdladm\fR(1m)\. The driver supports a number of parameters whose names
! being with \fBen_\fR (see below)\. Each of these parameters contains a
! boolean value that determines if the devices advertises that mode of
! operations\. The \fBadv_autoneg_cap\fR parameter controls whether
! auto-negotioation is performed\. If \fBadv_autoneg_cap\fR is set to 0, the
driver forces the mode of operation selected by the first non-zero
parameter in priority order as shown below:
