It's very useful when system is setting up and you check if both sides (switch and host) have actually negotiated the same. Also if one could change parameters (speed, duplex) with dladm it would be useful and logical instead of looking how to do it with given driver. Of course static config is different matter (or it is not?). -- Best regards, Robert mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://milek.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
