35.Sh NAME
36.Nm de
37.Nd
38.Tn DEC DEUNA/DELUA
3910 Mb/s Ethernet interface
40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41.Cd "de0 at uba? csr 174510"
42.Sh DESCRIPTION
43The
44.Nm
45interface provides access to a 10 Mb/s Ethernet network through
46a Digital Equipment
47.Tn UNIBUS
48Network Adapter
49.Pq Tn DEUNA .
50.Pp
51Each of the host's network addresses
52is specified at boot time with an
53.Dv SIOCSIFADDR
54.Xr ioctl 2 .
55The
56.Nm
57interface employs the address resolution protocol described in
58.Xr arp 4
59to dynamically map between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local
60network.
61.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
62.Bl -diag
63.It de%d: hardware address %s.
64This is a normal autoconfiguration message noting the 6 byte physical
65Ethernet address of the adapter.
66.It de%d: oerror, flags=%b tdrerr=%b (len=%d).
67The hardware indicated an error
68in transmitting a packet to the cable.
69The status and error flags are reported.
70.It de%d: ierror, flags=%b lenerr=%b (len=%d).
71The hardware indicated an error
72in reading a packet from the cable.
73The status and error flags are reported.
74.El
75.Pp
76The following messages indicate a probable hardware error performing
77the indicated operation during autoconfiguration or initialization.
78The two control and status registers
79should indicate the nature of the failure.
80See the hardware manual for details.
81.Bl -diag
82.It de%d: reset failed, csr0=%b csr1=%b.
83.It de%d: ppcb failed, csr0=%b csr1=%b.
84.It de%d: read addr failed, csr0=%b csr1=%b.
85.It de%d: wtring failed, csr0=%b csr1=%b.
86.It de%d: wtmode failed, csr0=%b csr1=%b.
