Brian,
One option depending on kernel that you are running is to look at the device
link in /sys/class/net/<nic>. These will vary based on the hardware, but
generally will stay the same for a given type of server (all 2850's are
generally the same).

I am setting up a 2850 to do some testing for moving our code repositories over
to SAN storage. I have a pe2850 with two onboard NICs and a dual port PCI nic.
All four ports are coming up as Intel e1000 ports. Is there any way of telling
from inside the OS which exact port eth0,1,2,3 actually are? Ive seen RHEL
change port around before, and I was just wondering how to check which
interface corresponds to which physical port, as this will probably be
important when we implement it.
On another note, has anyone got any suggestions on how to keep memory usage at
about 80% while doing benchmark tests? I want to compare the read/write speed
of local vs SAN storage, while the machines are in use. However the chances of
getting to do it in the live environment are zero. If I can keep the memory
usage at about 85% [cpu load is about .4 so is pretty negligible] I would have
some data to look at.
Thanks
