10/24 I'm trying to configure my ethernet interface in FreeBSD. ifconfig -a
doesn't show an "ed0" device, but it does show a "sis0" that I think
might be the equivalent to "ed0". What is sis0, and can I use it as my
ethernet interface?
\_ man sis
\_ the "letters" part of the device name is just the chipset. I don't
have an ed0 or an sis0.
\_ ed0 would be a NE2000 card or a clone, sis0 would be, eg, a NetGear
FA312 ether card. Odds are thats your ethernet.
\_ you are probably not tall enough to run bsd. use linux.
\_ And RIDE BIKE! too? I think "windows" is the answer if you want
to be mean about it. ifconfig on linux and freebsd is
essentially the same. How would linux help?
\_ Linux ethernet cards are reliably named ethN. |
