21.Sh DESCRIPTION
22The
23.Nm
24and
25.Nm fea
26device drivers provide support for the DEC DEFPA PCI FDDI Controller and
27the DEC DEFEA EISA FDDI Controller, respectively.
28All variants of either
29controller are supported including the DAS and SAS configurations.
30.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
31.Bl -diag
32.It "fea%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ (%d)"
33The device probe detected that the DEFEA board is configured for a different
34interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
35.It "fea%d: error: memory not enabled! ECU reconfiguration required"
36The device probe found that no device memory had been configured on the
37DEFEA.
38Although the DEFEA can be configured with no device memory, this driver
39requires a minimum of 1K device memory to be set up.
40The ECU (EISA Configuration
41Utility) will need to be run to change the settings.

54.Sh CAVEATS
55Normally, the device driver will not enable the reception of SMT frames.
56However if the IFF_LINK1 flag is set, the device driver will enable the
57reception of SMT frames and pass them up to the Berkeley Packet Filter for
58processing.
