The cas driver provides support for various NICs based on the Sun Cassini/Cassini+ and National Semiconductor Saturn Ethernet controller chips, including the following:

It uses an internal or external PHY or an external 10-bit interface.

The cas driver supports several media types, which are selected via the ifconfig(8) command. The supported media types are:

media autoselect

media 1000baseT mediaopt full-duplex
Use 1000baseT on copper, full duplex
media 1000baseT [mediaopt half-duplex]
Use 1000baseT on copper, half duplex
media 1000baseSX mediaopt full-duplex
Use 1000baseSX on fiber, full duplex
media 1000baseSX [mediaopt half-duplex]

OpenBSD support for cas first appeared in OpenBSD 4.1.

The cas driver was written by Mark Kettenis <kettenis@openbsd.org> based on the gem(4) driver.

The cas driver does not yet use many of the advanced features the Cassini chip offers.
