+<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">em</code> driver provides support for
+ PCI/PCI-X Gigabit Ethernet adapters based on the Intel 82540, 82541ER,
+ 82541PI, 82542, 82543, 82544, 82545, 82546, 82546EB, 82546GB, and 82547
+ controller chips.</p>
+<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">em</code> driver provides support for PCI
+ Express Gigabit Ethernet adapters based on the Intel 82571, 82572, 82573,
+ 82574, and 82583 Ethernet controller chips.</p>
+<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">em</code> driver provides support for Gigabit
+ Ethernet adapters connected to I/O Controller Hub (ICH) and Platform
+ Controller Hub (PCH) including Intel 80003ES2LAN, 82562, 82566, 82567,
+ 82577, 82578, 82579, i217, i218, and i219.</p>
+<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">em</code> driver provides support for PCI
+ Express Gigabit Ethernet adapters based on the Intel 82575, 82576, 82580,
+ i210, i211, and i35x. These appear as <code class="Nm">igb</code> interfaces
+ to maintain compatibility with existing infrastructure.</p>
+<p class="Pp">The driver supports Transmit/Receive checksum offload and Jumbo
+ Frames on all but 82542-based adapters.</p>
+<p class="Pp">Furthermore it supports TCP segmentation offload (TSO) on all
+ adapters but those based on the 82542, 82543, 82544 and 82547 controller
+ chips. The identification LEDs of the adapters supported by the
+ <code class="Nm">em</code> driver can be controlled via the
+ <a class="Xr">led(4)</a> API for localization purposes. For further hardware
+ information, see the <span class="Pa">README</span> included with the
+ driver.</p>
+<p class="Pp">For questions related to hardware requirements, refer to the
+ documentation supplied with your Intel PRO/1000 adapter. All hardware
+ requirements listed apply to use with <span class="Ux">FreeBSD</span>.</p>
+<p class="Pp">Support for Jumbo Frames is provided via the interface MTU
+ setting. Selecting an MTU larger than 1500 bytes with the
+ <a class="Xr">ifconfig(8)</a> utility configures the adapter to receive and
+ transmit Jumbo Frames. The maximum MTU size for Jumbo Frames is 16114.</p>
+<p class="Pp">This driver supports hardware assisted VLANs. The
