We are developing/modifying drivers for this family of Intel parts, and have
found the best (only?) documentation is through an Intel
'Secret/Confidential' document:

	10/100 MBIT ETHERNET FAMILY SOFTWARE TECHNICAL REFERENCE MANUAL
	Rev 1.1
	Ref No OR-1861

You have to go through your Intel rep and sign off some NDAs to receive it.
It probably contains the information you are looking for versus the
datasheet which only vaguely specifies necessary information to program and
use the part.

Subject: [eepro100] 82559ER command reference

I was trying to understand the 82559 driver. Can someone point me to the
document which has all the "command unit command" and "receive unit
command". I downloaded 82559er datasheet from Intel website but that doesn't
have this info.

Thanks,
Lomesh
