fxp autoselect problem

2004-03-05 Thread David . Bauer
Hello,

I have a problem with the fxp driver in FreeBSD4.9 RELEASE.
The switch is 100Mbit full duplex but it seems the handshake with my
network card does not work correctly.

fxp0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX)
status: active

The network throughput is very slow ( 8kbit/sec).

Is there a way to force the driver to 100 Mbit full duplex and disable the
autoselect ?

Thanks so lot,
David.

See the fxp(4) man page for additional ifconfig options
you can pass to the driver... eg.

(in /etc/rc.conf)

ifconfig_fxp0=inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 \
media 100BaseTX mediaopts full-duplex
