The SunFastEthernet software can output the messages listed below. Each
message is accompanied by an explanation and/or workaround.

Some of the messages indicate normal operation of the product, while others
indicate an error condition. In the latter category, certain messages indicate a
transitory condition, while others indicate a condition fatal to the operation of
the SunFastEthernet device.

The device cannot find a 100 Mbps transceiver and is switching to 10 Mbps
mode.

An attempt was made to unload the driver when the interface was still up. Use
ifconfig be<num> down to bring the interface down before unloading the driver.

Cannot reset the device. This is most likely due to a bad device.
