+.Pp
+All versions of the
+.Tn EtherLink XL
+.Pq except the older 3c900 and 3c905
+support IPv4/TCP/UDP checksumming in hardware.
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports this feature of the chip.
+See
+.Xr ifconfig 8
+for information on how to enable this feature.
+.Sh MEDIA SELECTION
+Some of these network interfaces support the Media Independent Interface
+.Pq Tn MII ,
+a bus which can have at least one arbitrary Physical interface
+.Pq Tn PHY
+chip on it.
+.Nx
+supports
+.Tn MII
+and has separate drivers for many different
+.Tn PHY
+chips, including
+.Xr ukphy 4 ,
+a generic
+.Tn PHY
+driver that can support many
+.Tn PHY
+chips that
+.Nx
+does not yet have a specific driver for.
+.Pp
+Support for the
+.Tn PHY
+found on a given
+.Tn NIC
+must be configured into a
+.Nx
+kernel
+.Xr config 1
+for this driver to work properly in those cases.
+.Pp
+See
+.Xr ifmedia 4 ,
+and
+.Xr mii 4 .
