I nearly forgot the output from my usbconfig(8):

# usbconfig -u 1 -a 2 dump_device_desc
ugen1.5: <USB 101001000 LAN Realtek> at usbus1, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH
(480Mbps) pwr=ON (100mA)

  bLength = 0x0012
  bDescriptorType = 0x0001
  bcdUSB = 0x0210
  bDeviceClass = 0x0000  <Probed by interface class>
  bDeviceSubClass = 0x0000
  bDeviceProtocol = 0x0000
  bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040
  idVendor = 0x0bda
  idProduct = 0x8153
  bcdDevice = 0x3000
  iManufacturer = 0x0001  <Realtek>
  iProduct = 0x0002  <USB 10/100/1000 LAN>
  iSerialNumber = 0x0003  <9CEBE81A1976>
  bNumConfigurations = 0x0002
