                     12: .B "device qe0 at uba? csr 174440 vector qeintr"
                     13: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     14: The
                     15: .B qe
                     16: interface provides access to a 10 Mb/s Ethernet network through
                     17: the DEC DEQNA Q-bus controller.
                     18: .PP
                     19: Each of the host's network addresses
                     20: is specified at boot time with an SIOCSIFADDR
                     21: ioctl.  The
                     22: .B qe
                     23: interface employs the address resolution protocol described in
                     24: arp(4P)
                     25: to map dynamically  between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local
                     26: network.
                     27: .PP
                     28: The interface normally tries to use a ``trailer'' encapsulation
                     29: to minimize copying data on input and output.
                     30: The use of trailers is negotiated with ARP.
                     31: This negotiation may be disabled, on a per-interface basis,
                     32: by setting the IFF_NOTRAILERS
                     33: flag with an SIOCSIFFLAGS ioctl.
