Problem fixing e1000gx ni to 100fdx / Solaris 10 / T5220
Hello !
i'm facing an anoying problem during configuration of our new T5220 Enperise server. I've upgarded 'em with a pci-e ethernet expantion card for four additional networkinterfaces using the nxge drivers. i could fix them to 100 fdx rather simple by adding the following settings to the
/platform/sun4v/kernel/drv/nxge.conf file:
adv_1000fdx_cap=0;
adv_1000hdx_cap=0;
adv_100fdx_cap=1;
adv_100hdx_cap=0;
adv_10fdx_cap=0;
adv_10hdx_cap=0;
adv_autoneg_cap=0;
so this was rather simple the hard part is to configure the built in e1000g
interfaces. i found some threads containing the modification of the
/kernel/drv/e1000g.conf like this:
# Driver.conf file for Intel e1000g Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
ForceSpeedDuplex=7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7; (autoneg)
AutoNegAdvertised=8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8; (autonegadvertise 100fdx only)
i also tried variations like
ForceSpeedDuplex=4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4; ( 100fdx)
AutoNegAdvertised=47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47,47;(autonegadvertise all supported modes)
but allways failed to fix the to 100fdx
dladm show-dev :
