ENIC(4) | NetBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual | ENIC(4) |
Each of the host's network addresses is specified at boot time with an SIOCSIFADDR ioctl(2). The enic interface employs the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) described in arp(4) to dynamically map between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local network.
Multicast Ethernet frames are unconditionally received and must be filtered in software.
