The ex driver supports this feature of the chip. See ifconfig(8) for information on how to enable this feature. MEDIA SELECTION
Some of these network interfaces support the Media Independent Interface (MII), a bus which can have at least one arbitrary Physical inter- face (PHY) chip on it. NetBSD supports MII and has separate drivers for many different PHY chips, including ukphy(4), a generic PHY driver that can support many PHY chips that NetBSD does not yet have a specific driver for. Support for the PHY found on a given NIC must be configured into a NetBSD kernel config(1) for this driver to work properly in those cases. See ifmedia(4), and mii(4). DIAGNOSTICS

The i8254x supports IPv4/TCP/UDP checksumming and TCP segmentation in hardware. The wm driver supports these features of the chip. See ifconfig(8) for information on how to enable this feature.
