The DP83820 supports TCP/IP checksum offload and VLAN - tagging/insertion as well as a 2048-bit multicast hash filter and up to 4 - pattern match buffers.</p> -<p class="Pp">Most cards also use the DP83861 10/100/1000 copper gigabit - transceiver chip, which supports autonegotiation of 10, 100 and 1000Mbps - modes in full or half duplex.</p> -<p class="Pp">The DP83820 and DP83821 also support jumbo frames, which can be - configured 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.
