I am attempting to change the speed and duplex settings on a single interface on a bge card on an m3000 SPARC server. Currently the settings are as follows:
I would like to change the bge1 interface to full duplex permanently. I read that I could make changes to the /platform/sun4u/kernel/drv/bge.conf file to make this permanent, however all of our attempts have not yielded the expected results.
Additional Information:
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there
We have a bit of a debate going here over what the prefered method is for setting 1000/Full on e1000g or nge interfaces is.
As you aware the Solaris configration files for nge and e1000g dont allow you to "fix" 1000/Full but instead allow you to set auto-negotiate to ON but only... (1 Reply)

Hi,
In UNIX, it's very easy to find the duplex speed. But in Windows, is there a easy way to find the duplex speed? I can't go to over 100 servers to find this out, I was wondering if I run one command to do this?
Please advice. (2 Replies)

amd8111s - AMD-8111 Fast Ethernet Network Adapter driver
SYNOPSIS
/dev/amd8111s
DESCRIPTION
The amd8111s Fast Ethernet driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clonable, GLD-based STREAMS driver supporting the Data Link Provider
Interface, dlpi(7P), on the AMD-8111 Fast Ethernet Network Adapter.
The amd8111s driver functions include controller initialization, frame transmit and receive, promiscuous and multicast support, and error
recovery and reporting.
APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE
The cloning, character-special device /dev/amd8111 is used to access all AMD-8111 Fast Ethernet devices installed within the system.
The amd8111s driver is managed by the dladm(1M) command line utility, which allows VLANs to be defined on top of amd8111s instances and
for amd8111s instances to be aggregated. See dladm(1M) for more details.
CONFIGURATION
By default, the amd8111s driver performs auto-negotiation to select the link speed and mode. Link speed and mode can be any of the follow-
ing:
100 Mbps, full-duplex.
100 Mbps, half-duplex.
10 Mbps, full-duplex.
10 Mbps, half-duplex.
FILES
