Hello,
I am writing an ethernet driver. My driver is a subclass of
IOEthernetController. If I go to the network control panel, and set the
"Configure:" menu to automatically, my driver's selectMedium() method get
called with the medium type kIOMediumEthernetAuto. If I then set the
"Configure:" menu to "Manually (Advanced)", and set the "Speed" and
"Duplex" menus to specific settings, my driver's selectMedium() method
gets called with the appropriate medium type. However if, while on the
"Manually (Advanced)" menu, I set the "Speed" to "autoselect", my
selectMedium method does not get called. So, my question is, what is the
difference, as far as the network medium is concerned, between setting the
"Configure" menu to "Automatically", and setting the "Speed" menu to
"autoselect"? Should I be adding another medium in addition to
kIOMediumEthernetAuto to my published medium dictionary?

P.S. I am running Mac OS X 10.3.8.
