41.5. Ethernet Parameters
Most modern Ethernet-based network interface cards (NICs), do not require module parameters to alter settings. Instead, they can be configured using ethtool or mii-tool. Only after these tools fail to work should module parameters be adjusted. Module paramaters can be viewed using the modinfo command.
For information about using these tools, consult the man pages for ethtool, mii-tool, and modinfo.
