Sun Quad FastEthernet 6U CompactPCI Adapter Installation and User’s Guide • June 2000

Setting Parameters Using the

qfe.conf

File

To set the

qfe

driver parameters for

qfe

devices so that the parameter variables stay

in effect after rebooting the system, create a

qfe.conf

file in your system’s

/kernel/drv

directory.

You can also create a

qfe.conf

file when you need to set parameters for a specific

qfe

device in the system. The parameters you set are read and write parameters listed

in “Device Driver Parameter Values and Definitions” on page 59, and in

TABLE B-9

The man pages for

prtconf

(1M),

system

(4) and

driver.conf

(4) include

additional details about driver configuration files.
