-.Sh NAME
-.Nm vmx
-.Nd VMware VMXNET3 Virtual Interface Controller device
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-To compile this driver into the kernel,
-place the following line in your
-kernel configuration file:
-.Bd -ragged -offset indent
-.Cd "device vmx"
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Alternatively, to load the driver as a
-module at boot time, place the following line in
-.Xr loader.conf 5 :
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-if_vmx_load="YES"
-.Ed
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides support for the VMXNET3 virtual NIC available in virtual
-machines by VMware.
-It appears as a simple Ethernet device but is actually a virtual network
-interface to the underlying host operating system.
-.Pp
-This driver supports the
-.Ic VMXNET3
-driver protocol, as an alternative to the emulated
-.Xr pcn 4 ,
-.Xr em 4
-interfaces also available in the VMware environment.
-The
-.Nm
-driver is optimized for the virtual machine, it can provide advanced
-capabilities depending on the underlying host operating system and
-the physical network interface controller of the host.
-The
-.Nm
-driver supports features like multiqueue support, IPv6
-checksum offloading, MSI/MSI-X support and hardware VLAN tagging in
-VMware's VLAN Guest Tagging (VGT) mode.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-driver supports VMXNET3 VMware virtual NICs provided by the virtual
-machine hardware version 7 or newer, as provided by the following
-products:
-.Pp
-.Bl -bullet -compact -offset indent
-.It
-VMware ESX/ESXi 4.0 and newer
-.It
-VMware Server 2.0 and newer
-.It
-VMware Workstation 6.5 and newer
-.It
-VMware Fusion 2.0 and newer

-For more information on configuring this device, see
-.Xr ifconfig 8 .
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-The following entry must be added to the VMware configuration file
-to provide the
-.Nm
-device:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-ethernet0.virtualDev = "vmxnet3"
