BE(4)                 OpenBSD Programmer's Manual (SPARC)                BE(4)

NAME
     be - SPARC 10/100 Ethernet device

SYNOPSIS
     qec* at sbus?  (sun4c/sun4m)
     be* at qec?    (sun4c/sun4m)

DESCRIPTION
     The be interface provides access to the 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s (half duplex
     only) Ethernet networks.  The be is found on the Sun 10/100 Mbit Ethernet
     boards (Sun part number SUNW,501-2450).

     The be is not capable of link autonegotiation, so a media type must be
     specified with ifconfig(8).  The supported media types are:

           media 100baseTX [mediaopt half-duplex]
                       Use 100Mbps, half duplex

           media 10baseT [mediaopt half-duplex]
                       Use 10Mbps, half duplex

SEE ALSO
     arp(4), ifmedia(4), inet(4), intro(4), netintro(4), qec(4), sbus(4),
     hostname.if(5), ifconfig(8)

HISTORY
     The be driver first appeared in OpenBSD 2.4.
