.Sh SYNOPSIS

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm qe
|
|
interface provides access to a 10 Mb/s Ethernet network through
|
|
the
|
|
.Tn DEC DEQNA
|
|
.Tn Q-bus
|
|
controller.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each of the host's network addresses
|
|
is specified at boot time with an
|
|
.Dv SIOCSIFADDR
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2 .
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm qe
|
|
interface employs the address resolution protocol described in
|
|
.Xr arp 4
|
|
to map dynamically between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local
|
|
network.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The interface normally tries to use a
|
|
.Dq trailer
|
|
encapsulation
|
|
to minimize copying data on input and output.
|
|
The use of trailers is negotiated with
|
|
.Tn ARP .
|
|
This negotiation may be disabled, on a per-interface basis,
|
|
by setting the
|
|
.Dv IFF_NOTRAILERS
|
|
flag with an
|
|
.Dv SIOCSIFFLAGS
|
|
.Xr ioctl .
