how to force network interface ?
Hi I have a HP Proliant DL380 with two broadcomm 10/100/1000 RJ45 interfaces my problem is the interface does not negociate properly with the switch interface ( Alcatel 7700 ) and each time I start the server the DUPLEX mode is set to HALF that I do not want. The speed is correctly set to 100 How to set the interface ( bge0 ) to full duplex manually ? The machine runs 4.9-R Thanks Frank ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well this doesn't seems to work it seems to break the interface and I cannot ping the machine anymore. removing the option make things goes better BUT it is set to HALF DUPLEX again ( aargh ) ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: how to force network interface ?
Are you sure all your down stream switches and hubs are full-duplex? If one is not, it will force the whole leg to it's setting. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Frank Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2004 8:43 AM To: Rob Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: how to force network interface ?
