Help text

This option supports devices conforming to the Communication Device Class (CDC) Ethernet Control Model, a specification that's easy to implement in device firmware. The CDC specifications are available from http://www.usb.org/.

CDC Ethernet is an implementation option for DOCSIS cable modems that support USB connectivity, used for non-Microsoft USB hosts. This driver should work with at least the following devices:

* Ericsson PipeRider (all variants) * Motorola (DM100 and SB4100) * Broadcom Cable Modem (reference design) * Toshiba PCX1100U * ...

This driver creates an interface named "ethX", where X depends on what other networking devices you have in use. However, if the IEEE 802 "local assignment" bit is set in the address, a "usbX" name is used instead.
