# NAME

eh — i-cubed EtherLan 100/200/500-series (EtherH) Ethernet driver

# SYNOPSIS

eh* at podulebus0 slot ?

# DESCRIPTION

The eh driver provides access to a 10 Mb/s Ethernet network through an i-cubed EtherLan 100-series, 200-series or 500-series expansion card. It also supports the Acorn-badged variants of the same cards, with part numbers AEH75, AEH77 and AEH79.

Media selection on cards supporting multiple media can be accomplished either using ifconfig(8) or using links on the card. The links override the software and make the card behave as if only one medium is available. The media available, subject to the hardware on the card, are:

auto
  Automatically select 10BASE-T or 10BASE2. 10BASE-T will be used if a link beat appears to be present on that interface. Otherwise, 10BASE2 will be used.
10baseT
  10BASE-T, 10Mb/s over unshielded twisted pair, RJ45 connector.
10base2
  10BASE2, 10Mb/s over coaxial cable, BNC connector, also called Thinnet.

# SEE ALSO

ifmedia(4), ne(4), netintro(4), podulebus(4), ifconfig(8)

# BUGS

EtherLan 500-series support is untested.

The 10BASE-FL port on the EtherLan 513 will probably be identified as 10BASE2.
