Servers and workstations frequently use the same ethernet hardware and
drivers (Broadcom or Intel FastE and GigE).
If a desktop fails autonegotiation, so will the servers.
I'm using Dell desktops & servers, white box desktops & servers;
switches are Cisco, HP, Linksys, Dell, Extreme Networks, etc.
It's been years and years since I've seen something not autonegotiate
properly.
Steven Peck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> previously uttered:
I said servers. Workstations could just auto-negotiate or reboot if needed.
I have seen problems and I have seen problems on equipment as late as
two years ago. Cisco switches, HP servers.
