Not all of these are supported by every device; refer to +your device's manual page for more information. +.Pp +The lists below provide the possible names of each media type or option. +The first name in the list is the canonical name of the media type or +option. Additional names are acceptable aliases for the media type or +option. +.Sh COMMON MEDIA TYPES AND OPTIONS +The followng media types are shared by all link types: +.Bl -tag -offset indent -width IFM_MANUAL +.It IFM_AUTO +Autoselect the best media.
