VIC(4) - Device Drivers Manual # VIC(4) - Device Drivers Manual NAME # vic - VMware VMXnet Virtual Interface Controller device SYNOPSIS # vic* at pci? DESCRIPTION # The vic driver provides support for the VMXnet virtual NIC available in virtual machines by VMware. It appears as a simple Ethernet device but is actually a virtual network interface to the underlying host operating system. This driver supports the vmxnet driver protocol, as an alternative to the emulated pcn(4) and em(4) interfaces also available in the VMware environment. ...
VLAN(4) - Device Drivers Manual # VLAN(4) - Device Drivers Manual NAME # vlan, svlan - IEEE 802.1Q and 802.1ad pseudo-device SYNOPSIS # pseudo-device vlan DESCRIPTION # The vlan driver provides network interfaces supporting Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) on Ethernet networks. vlan interfaces implement virtual networks using the IEEE 802.1Q protocol. svlan interfaces implement virtual networks using the IEEE 802.1ad protocol. svlan interfaces allow construction of IEEE 802.1ad-compliant provider bridges. ...
VMX(4) - Device Drivers Manual # VMX(4) - Device Drivers Manual NAME # vmx - VMware VMXNET3 Virtual Interface Controller device SYNOPSIS # vmx* at pci? DESCRIPTION # The vmx driver provides support for the VMXNET3 virtual NIC available in virtual machines by VMware. It appears as a simple Ethernet device but is actually a virtual network interface to the underlying host operating system. This driver supports the VMXNET3 driver protocol, as an alternative to the emulated pcn(4), em(4) and the earlier VMXNET vic(4) interfaces also available in the VMware environment. ...
VNET(4) - Device Drivers Manual (sparc64) # VNET(4) - Device Drivers Manual (sparc64) NAME # vnet - virtual network interface SYNOPSIS # vnet* at cbus? vnet* at vsw? DESCRIPTION # The vnet driver provides a network interface using the services provided by the UltraSPARC Hypervisor as found on sun4v systems. It connects to a virtual switch (vsw) device or virtual network (vnet) device in another logical domain using a logical domain channel provided by the hypervisor. ...

DESCRIPTION # The vr driver provides support for PCI Ethernet adapters and embedded controllers based on the VIA Technologies VT3043 Rhine I, VT86C100A Rhine II, VT6102 Rhine II, and VT6105/VT6105M Rhine III Fast Ethernet controller chips, including the following: ...
VTE(4) - Device Drivers Manual # VTE(4) - Device Drivers Manual NAME # vte - RDC R6040 10/100 Ethernet device SYNOPSIS # vte* at pci? rdcphy* at mii? DESCRIPTION # The vte driver provides support for Ethernet interfaces based on the RDC R6040 Ethernet chipset which is commonly found on Vortex86 System On a Chip (SoC). The vte driver supports interrupt moderation mechanism, a 64-bit multicast hash filter. The following media types are supported: ...
VXLAN(4) - Device Drivers Manual # VXLAN(4) - Device Drivers Manual NAME # vxlan - Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network tunnel interface SYNOPSIS # pseudo-device vxlan DESCRIPTION # The vxlan pseudo-device provides interfaces for tunnelling or overlaying Ethernet networks on top of IPv4 and IPv6 networks using the Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network (VXLAN) protocol. VXLAN datagrams consist of an Ethernet payload encapsulated by an 8-byte VXLAN header, which in turn is encapsulated by UDP and IP headers. ...
