130In addition to Intel's own
131.Dq PRO/1000
132line of Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, these chips also appear on
133some server systems, processor evaluation boards, and in embedded
134systems.
135.Pp
136The i8254x supports IPv4/TCP/UDP checksumming and TCP segmentation
137in hardware.
138The
139.Nm
140driver supports these features of the chip.
141See
142.Xr ifconfig 8
143for information on how to enable this feature.
