+# Interface hardware tuning & configuration via ethtool
+# If you need to change explicit hardware settings on your network card prior
+# to bringing the interface up, the following is available.
+#
+# For a full listing of settings, please consulting ethtool(8) and the output
+# of "ethtool --help".
+#
+# Multiple entries (seperated by newlines) are supported in all of the
+# variables as some settings cannot be changed at the same time.
+#
+# Valid variable name fragments: change pause coalesce ring offload
+# change_eeprom identify nfc flash rxfh_indir ntuple
+
+# Set Wake-On-Lan to listen for SecureOn MagicPacket(tm), the message level to
+# notify us of WOL changes, and the SecureOn password to 'DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE'.
