+.Nd "Broadcom NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet adapter driver"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "bnx* at pci?"
+.Cd "brgphy* at mii?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports Broadcom's NetXtreme II product family, such as the
+BCM5706 PCI-X and BCM5708 PCI Express Ethernet controllers, which
+includes the following:
+.Pp
+.Bl -bullet -compact
+.It
+HP NC370T Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter
+.It
+HP NC370i Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter
+.El
+.Pp
+The NetXtreme II product family is composed of various Converged NIC (or CNIC)
+Ethernet controllers which support a TCP Offload Engine (TOE), Remote DMA (RDMA),
+and iSCSI acceleration, in addition to standard L2 Ethernet traffic, all on the
+same controller.
+The following features are supported in the
+.Nm
+driver under OpenBSD:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+.\" IP/TCP/UDP checksum offload
+.\" Jumbo frames (up to 9022 bytes)
+.\" VLAN tag stripping
+Interrupt coalescing
+10/100/1000Mbps operation in full-duplex mode
+10/100Mbps operation in half-duplex mode
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following media types:
+.Bl -tag -width ".Cm 10baseT/UTP"
+.It Cm autoselect
+Enable autoselection of the media type and options.
+The user can manually override
+the autoselected mode by adding media options to
+.Xr rc.conf 5 .
+.It Cm 10baseT/UTP
+Set 10Mbps operation.
+The
+.Xr ifconfig 8
+.Ic mediaopt
+option can also be used to select either
+.Cm full-duplex
+or
+.Cm half-duplex
+modes.
+.It Cm 100baseTX
+Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation.
+The
+.Xr ifconfig 8
+.Ic mediaopt
+option can also be used to select either
+.Cm full-duplex
+or
+.Cm half-duplex
+modes.
+.It Cm 1000baseTX
+Set 1000baseTX operation over twisted pair.
+Only
+.Cm full-duplex
+mode is supported.
+.El
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following media options:
+.Bl -tag -width ".Cm full-duplex"
+.It Cm full-duplex
+Force full duplex operation.
+.It Cm half-duplex
+Force half duplex operation.
+.El
+.Pp
