based nodes on the basis of the aggregate traffic
benefits.
FEAST is software-compatible with the existing
SMC9000 family of products and can use current
SMC9000 drivers in 16- and 32-bit Intel X86-based
environments.
Two different interfaces are supported on the
network side. The first is a conventional seven
wire ENDEC interface that connects to the
SMC83C694 for 10BASE-T and coax 10 Mbps
Ethernet networks. The second interface follows the
MII (Media Independent Interface) specification draft
standard, consisting of 4 bit wide data transfers at
the nibble rate. FEAST also interfaces to the MII
serial management protocol. Four I/O ports (one
input and three output pins) are provided for
SMC83C694 configuration.
