DESCRIPTION
     The axe driver provides support for USB Ethernet adapters based on the
     ASIX Electronics AX88172, AX88178, and AX88772 USB 2.0 chipsets.

     The chip contains a 10/100 Ethernet MAC with MII interface and is
     designed to work with both Ethernet and HomePNA transceivers.  The AX8172
     and AX88772 contain 10/100 Ethernet MACs with MII interfaces.  The AX8178
     contains a 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet MAC with a GMII/MII interface.
     The chip also supports USB 2.0, thereby accommodating 100 Mb/s data
     rates.

     The axe driver supports the following media types:

     autoselect		   Enable automatic selection of the media type and
			   options.

     10baseT/UTP	   Set 10Mbps operation.  The mediaopt option can also
			   be used to enable full-duplex operation.  Not spec‐
			   ifying full duplex implies half-duplex mode.

     100baseTX		   Set 100Mbps (fast Ethernet) operation.  The
			   mediaopt option can also be used to enable
			   full-duplex operation.  Not specifying full duplex
			   implies half-duplex mode.

     1000baseT		   Set 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) operation (AX88178
			   only).

     The axe driver supports the following media options:

     full-duplex	   Force full duplex operation.	 The interface will
			   operate in half duplex mode if this media option is
			   not specified.

     For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8).
