Is there a reason?
We picked ifspeed based on: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/brussels-dev/2007-June/000235.html I don't have a preference for speed/ifspeed myself- if there's a strong consensus for changing ifpseed -> speed, we can do this post putback.. > * Likewise, "default_mtu" seems a cumbersome name to be saddled > with for the long haul.

I like default_mtu myself, as a user is likely to quickly understand that this is the same thing as the driver.conf version.. again, I suppose we could lose the "default_" prefix based on user-feedback.. --Sowmini
