.Dd May 17, 2001 .Dt SIP 4 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm sip .Nd SiS 900-based Ethernet driver .Sh SYNOPSIS .Cd "sip* at pci? dev ? function ?"
p Configuration of PHYs is also necessary. See .Xr mii 4 . .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm device driver supports Ethernet interfaces based on the Silicon Integrated Systems SiS 900, SiS 7016, and National Semiconductor DP83815 Ethernet chips.
p The SiS 900 is found on many motherboards featuring SiS chipsets, and on some embedded systems, and has a built-in PHY. The SiS 7016 is an older version of the chip, which uses an external PHY.
p
The National Semiconductor DP83815 is found on NetGear FA-311 and
FA-312 Ethernet boards, and has a built-in PHY.
