NAME

       ure — RealTek RTL8152 USB to Fast Ethernet controller driver

SYNOPSIS

       To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

             device uhci
             device ohci
             device usb
             device miibus
             device uether
             device ure

       Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

             if_ure_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

       The  ure  driver  provides  support  for  USB  Ethernet adapters based on the RealTek RTL8152 USB to Fast
       Ethernet controller chip.

       The RTL8152 contains an integrated Fast Ethernet MAC, which supports both 10 and 100Mbps speeds in either
       full or half duplex.

       The ure driver supports the following media types:

       autoselect   Enable auto selection of the media type and options.  The user  can  manually  override  the
                    auto selected mode by adding media options to the /etc/rc.conf file.

       10baseT/UTP  Set  10Mbps operation.  The mediaopt option can also be used to select either full-duplex or
                    half-duplex modes.

       100baseTX    Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation.  The mediaopt option  can  also  be  used  to  select
                    either full-duplex or half-duplex modes.

       The ure driver supports the following media options:

       full-duplex  Force full duplex operation.

       half-duplex  Force half duplex operation.

       For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8).

DIAGNOSTICS

       ure%d:  watchdog timeout  A packet was queued for transmission and a transmit command was issued, however
       the device failed to acknowledge the transmission before a timeout expired.
