	FreeBSD-2.2.1-RELEASE

>Description:

	The description about the interpretation of LINK0, LINK1, and LINK2
	flags for the ep driver is false.
	The correct description would be as shown below

		LINK0 set	==>	use AUI
		LINK1 set	==>	use BNC
		LINK2 set	==>	use UTP
		All unset	==>	use default interface

	The manual page should also say that the order of the table above
	is the order in which the flags are tested, and the first match
	is obeyed independent of the setting of the rest of the flags.

>How-To-Repeat:

	See Description!

>Fix:
	
	See Description!
>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
