Network question

Hey,

Just need a little help I'm not sure wat I should do.

We have several little networks setup for testing different things. One of these networks we need to have running at full dulpex.

Right now we run 2 hubs (to go off to 2 differnt parts) and they are half dulpex hubs.

Is is possible to get full dulpex hubs? Or would I be better off getting a 24 port switch, getting rid of the 2 hubs now and just move in the 24 port switch. Correct if I'm wrong but doesn't a smart switch sense what connection speed the computer can run at then set the speed at 10 or 100? Or whatever it may be?

Thanks for the advice Smilie

NAME
networks - network name information DESCRIPTION
The file /etc/networks is a plain ASCII file that describes known DARPA networks and symbolic names for these networks. Each line repre- sents a network and has the following structure: name number aliases ... where the fields are delimited by spaces or tabs. Empty lines are ignored. The hash character (#) indicates the start of a comment: this character, and the remaining characters up to the end of the current line, are ignored by library functions that process the file. The field descriptions are: name The symbolic name for the network. Network names can contain any printable characters except white-space characters or the comment character. number The official number for this network in numbers-and-dots notation (see inet(3)). The trailing ".0" (for the host component of the network address) may be omitted. aliases Optional aliases for the network. This file is read by the route(8) and netstat(8) utilities. Only Class A, B or C networks are supported, partitioned networks (i.e., net- work/26 or network/28) are not supported by this facility. FILES
/etc/networks The networks definition file. SEE ALSO
getnetbyaddr(3), getnetbyname(3), getnetent(3), netstat(8), route(8) COLOPHON
