The eg*0_mode or ei*0_mode or ew*0_mode environment variable sets an Ethernet
controller to run an AUI, ThinWire, or twisted-pair Ethernet network.
To list the network devices on your system, enter the show device command. The Ethernet
controllers start with the letters "eg", "ei," or "ew," for example, ewa0. The third letter is
the adapter ID for the specific Ethernet controller. Replace the asterisk (*) with the adapter
ID letter when entering the command.
The syntax is:
set eg*0_mode value or
set ei*0_mode value or
set ew*0_mode value
The options for ei*_mode and ew*_mode value are:
Aui
bnc
fast
