devn-rtl8150.so
Driver for Realtek 8150 Ethernet dongle
Syntax:
io-pkt-variant -d rtl8150 [option[,option ...]] ...
where variant is one of v4, v4-hc, or v6-hc.
Runs on:
Neutrino
Options:
 |
Use commas, not spaces, to separate the options. |
- busnum=0xXX
- The USB bus number.
- devnum=0xXX
- The USB device number.
- did=0xXXXX
- The USB device ID.
- duplex=0|1
- Half (0) or full (1) duplex mode.
- iftype=num
- The interface type (from <net/if_types.h>). The default is IFT_ETHER.
- lan=num
- The LAN number. The default is 0.
- mac=XXXXXXXXXXXX
- The MAC address of the adapter. The default is automatically detected on supported hardware.
- media=num
- The media type (from <hw/nicinfo.h>). The default is NIC_MEDIA_802_3.
- mru=num
- The maximum receive unit. The default is 1514.
- mtu=X
- The maximum transmission unit. The default (1514) is automatically detected on supported hardware.
- nomulticast
- Disable multicast support. By default, multicast is enabled.
- path=name
- The device name. The default is /dev/usbenet0.
- phy=num
- The address of the connected PHY device.
- priority=N
- The priority of the driver-event thread. The default is 21.
- promiscuous
- Enable promiscuous mode. The default is off.
- receive=num
- Set the number of receive descriptors. The default is 5.
- speed=10|100
- The media data rate (10Mbit or 100Mbit operation). The default is automatically detected on supported hardware. If you specify speed, specify duplex as well; if you specify the speed alone, the speed is correctly set, but duplex defaults to half (0).
- transmit=num
- Set the number of tx descriptors. The default is 10.
- uptype=name
- The interface name. The default is “en”.
- verbose
verbose=num - Be verbose. Specify num for more verbosity (num can be 1-4, the higher the number, the more detailed the output). The default is 0. The output goes to slogger; invoke sloginfo to view it.
- vid=0xXXXX
- The USB vendor ID of the adapter. The default is automatically detected on supported hardware.
- wait=num
- Wait num seconds for the USB stack. The default is 60 seconds.
Description:
The devn-rtl8150.so driver controls the Realtek 8150 Ethernet dongle, which is included in SMC2208 USB/Ethernet adapters. This is a legacy io-net driver; its interface names are in the form enX, where X is an integer.

If the device enumerators (see enum-devices) don't recognize your device, try explicitly specifying the device ID with the did option when you start the driver. |
Some devices support hardware checksums, although some might do so in only one direction; to determine if your device does, type:
ifconfig enX
and look for the following in the list of supported options:
- ip4csum, ip4csum-rx, ip4csum-tx
- tcp4csum, tcp4csum-rx, tcp4csum-tx
- tcp6csum, tcp6csum-rx, tcp6csum-tx
- udp4csum, udp4csum-rx, udp4csum-tx
- udp6csum, udp6csum-rx, udp6csum-tx
You can then use ifconfig to enable or disable whichever of these options your device supports.
Examples:
Start io-pkt-v6-hc using the Realtek driver:
io-pkt-v6-hc -drtl8150 verbose & ifconfig en0 10.1.0.184
Files:
- /dev/io-net
- The directory where, by default, drivers and protocol modules add entries. For more information, see the documentation for io-pkt*.
