The > ifconfig man page hasnt been updated in eons. Both 4.2 and -current's manpages look up-to-date to me. They describe the "media" and "mediaopt" parameters. You have to check the manpage for whatever nic driver you use for the allowable types, since it changes for each driver (for example, the fxp mapage lists allowable media of "autoselect", "10baseT/UTP", and "100baseTX", and allowable mediaopt of "full-duplex"). -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
