-.Dd August 6, 1996
-.Dt LE 4 pmax
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm le
-.Nd
-DECstation AMD 7990 LANCE Ethernet interface
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "le* at mainbus?   with le_pmax"   (3100 baseboard)
-.Cd "le* at tc?        with le_tc"             (5000/200 baseboard)
-.Cd "le* at ioasic?  with le_ioasic"   (ioasic baseboard)
-.Cd "le* at tc?        with le_tc"             (TC option cards)
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides access to a 10Mb/s Ethernet via the
-.Tn AMD
-7990
-.Tn LANCE
-Ethernet chip.
-All
-.Tn LANCE
-interfaces on
-.Tn DECstations
-are supported, as are interfaces on
-.Tn "Alpha AXP"
-machines with a
-.Tn TurboChannel
-bus.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm 
-driver employs the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) described in
-.Xr arp 4
-to map between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local network.
-.Pp
-Selective reception of multicast Ethernet frames is provided
-by a 64-bit mask; multicast destination addresses are hashed to a
-bit entry using the Ethernet CRC function.
-.Pp
-No support is provided for switching between media ports.
-The
-.Tn DECstation
-3100 provides both AUI and BNC (thinwire or 10base2) connectors.
-Port selection is via a manual switch and is not software configurable.
-.Pp
-The
-.Tn DECstation
-model 5000/200
-.Tn PMAD-AA
-baseboard device provides only a BNC connector.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm ioasic
-baseboard devices and the 
-.Tn PMAD-AA
-.Tn TurboChannel
-option card provide only an AUI port.
-.Pp
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr intro 4 ,
-.Xr inet 4 ,
-.Xr tc 4 ,
-.Xr ioasic 4 ,
-.Xr arp 4 .
-.Sh BUGS
-On all front-ends, performance is impaired by hardware which
-forces a software copy of packets to and from DMA buffers.
-The
-.Nm ioasic
-machines and the
-.Tn DECstation
-3100 must 
-copy packets to and from non-contiguous DMA buffers.
-The 
-.Tn DECstation
-5000/200 and the
-.Tn PMAD-AA 
-must copy to and from an onboard SRAM DMA buffer.
-The CPU overhead is noticeable, but all machines
-can sustain full 10 Mb/s media speed.
-.Sh HISTORY
-This
-.Nm
-driver is derived from a
-.Nm
-driver that first appeared in
-.Bx 4.4 .
-Support for multiple bus attachments first appeared in
-.Nx 1.2 .
