Yes your both right. Sorry though I should have explained myself a little better.

There something like ndd -a or some type of command that you can use to see what speed the connection between a hub or a switch is.

I'm not sure of the command and the more I look into it the more I get myself lost (though I do find out good things to do with Solaris Smilie )

Does anyone know of a way that can tell you the connection speed between teh NIC and the hub/switch?

I'm running Soalris 7

The following features are supported in the bnx driver under NetBSD: IPv4 receive IP/TCP/UDP checksum offload Jumbo frames (up to 9022 bytes) VLAN tag insertion Interrupt coalescing 10/100/1000Mbps operation in full-duplex mode 10/100Mbps operation in half-duplex mode The bnx driver supports the following media types: autoselect Enable autoselection of the media type and options. The user can manually override the autoselected mode via ifconfig(8). 10baseT/UTP Set 10Mbps operation. The ifconfig(8) mediaopt option can also be used to select either full-duplex or half-duplex modes. 100baseTX Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation. The ifconfig(8) mediaopt option can also be used to select either full-duplex or half-duplex modes. 1000baseTX Set 1000baseTX operation over twisted pair. Only full-duplex mode is supported. 1000baseSX Set 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) operation. Both full-duplex and half-duplex modes are supported. 2500baseSX Set 2500Mbps operation. Only full-duplex mode is supported. The bnx driver supports the following media options: full-duplex Force full duplex operation. half-duplex Force half duplex operation.
