  20      -.LP
  21      -The \fBafe\fR driver is a multi-threaded,  loadable, clonable, GLD-based
  22      -STREAMS  driver supporting the Data Link Provider Interface \fBdlpi\fR(7P) on
  23      -ADMtek (now Infineon) Centaur and Comet Fast Ethernet controllers.
  24      -.SH APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE
  25      -.sp
  26      -.LP
  27      -The \fBafe\fR driver can be used as either a "style 1" or a "style 2" Data Link
  28      -Service Provider. Physical points of attachment (PPAs) are interpreted as the
  29      -instance  number of the \fBafe\fR controller as assigned by the Solaris
  30      -operating environment.

  82      -Likewise, inbound frames with a SAP between zero and 1500 are interpreted as

       38 +10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, both full and half duplex operation, IEEE 802.3
       39 +autonegotiation, etc.  They also support full size MTUs (1500 bytes),
       40 +even when used with VLANs.  Most of them also support flow control.
       41 +.
       42 +.Lp
       43 +The device driver supports the
