13 13 DESCRIPTION
14 14 The bnxe Ethernet driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clonable,
15 15 GLDv3-based driver supporting the Data Link Provider Interface,
16 16 dlpi(7P), over QLogic NetXtreme II 10 Gigabit Ethernet controllers.
17 17 Multiple NetXtreme II controllers installed within the system are
18 18 supported by the driver.

20 20 The bnxe driver provides support for the NetXtreme II 10 Gigabit line
21 21 of devices. Functions include chip initialization, frame transmit and
22 22 receive, multicast and promiscuous support, error recovery and
23 23 reporting. These devices provide 10/100/1000/2500/10000 Mbps networking
24 24 interfaces.

27 27 DRIVER CONFIGURATION
28 28 The primary methods of configuration are via modification of the
29 29 /kernel/drv/bnxe.conf file or execution of the dladm(1M) utility. There
30 30 are many configuration items available and all are thoroughly
31 31 documented in the /kernel/drv/bnxe.conf file. Note that for changes to
32 32 this file to take affect the driver must be reloaded or the system
33 33 rebooted. In order to reload the driver with new configuration changes
34 34 all bnxe interfaces must be first unplumbed and then the update_drv(1M)
35 35 tool must be executed. For the configuration items that do not require
36 36 a driver reload the dladm(1M) tool can be used to dynamically change
37 37 the option.
