That setting can be done 2 different ways (which both end up doing the same thing) On demand you can issue a 'ndd' command against the NIC driver (i.e. /dev/hme or /dev/qfe) like so: ndd /dev/qfe -set adv_autoneg_cap=0 ndd /dev/qfe -set adv_100fdx_cap=1 ndd /dev/qfe -set adv_100hdx_cap=1 ndd /dev/qfe -set adv_10fdx_cap=1 ndd /dev/qfe -set adv_10hdx_cap=1 The first ndd command turns off autonegotiation, this is needed Then you would enter ONE of the following commands to set the hard coded settings (100Full-Duplex, 100Half-duplex etc....) This helps for the immediate but not on subsequent reboots, to fix that you need to a set of similar lines to your /etc/system file like so: set qfe:qfe_adv_autoneg_cap = 0 set qfe:qfe_adv_100fdx_cap = 1 set qfe:qfe_adv_100hdx_cap = 0 set qfe:qfe_adv_10fdx_cap = 0 set qfe:qfe_adv_10hdx_cap = 0 I always put all of these entries in my /etc/system. Doing the HME interfaces are very similar, just replace the qfe with hme. Also note this changes ALL instances of the driver type (i.e. all 4 ports on a qfe, or every hme interface in a box) Hope this help. ______________________________ Thomas Crowe Technical Director Research & Development CTS - Atlanta Phone: 770-664-3900 ext 45 ______________________________ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2001 9:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How to know the duplex and speed setting of Solaris NIC??
