Operating Systems AIX Add PCI ethernet card? Post 61612 by Jwoollard on Sunday 6th of February 2005 07:23:34 AM

Thanks Manu,

Can I use any PCI ehternet card or does it have to be an IBM card. Specifically I have a 3COM Fast Etherlnk XL PCI 10/100 BASE TX (3C905B-TX) adapter I wanted to use. I downloaded drivers for this card from IBM but the README states that if the card isn't IBM's version it won't work... I guess I could just try it anyway. Have any ideas? Thanks.

Jeff

NAME
eepro100-diag - EEPROM setup and diagnostic program for Intel EtherExpress Pro100B, and EEPro PCI 10+ ethernet cards. SYNOPSIS
eepro100-diag [options] DESCRIPTION
eepro100-diag is a program that you can use to diagnose problems with ethernet cards based the "Speedo3" chip series: the i82557, '558 and '559. These chips are used on the EtherExpress Pro100B, and EEPro PCI 10+. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. -h, --help Show summary of options. -V, --version Show version of program. -v, --verbose Verbose mode. -q, --quiet Be very unverbose. -# <cardnum>, --card_num <cardnum> Use card number <cardnum>. -a, --show_all_registers Print all registers. -e, --show-eeprom Dump EEPROM contents to stdout. -E, --emergency-rewrite Re-write a corrupted EEPROM. -p, --port-base <port> Specify port to use. -A, --Advertise <mediaype> Advertise media type. Valid Options are: 10baseT, 100baseT4, 100baseTx, 100baseTx-FD, 100baseTx-HD, 10baseT-FD and 10baseHD. -F, --new-interface <interface> Interface number. Options that make sense are: 10baseT, 10base2, AUI, 100baseTx, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTx-FDX, 100baseT4, 100baseFx, 100baseFx-FDX, MII and Autosense. -H, --new-hwaddress <address> Set card to a new hardware address. -m, --show-mii Dump MII management registers. -R, --reset Reset the transceiver. -T, --test Do register and SRAM test. -w, --write-EEPROM <values> Write to the EEPROMS with the specified values. Do not use this, if you do not know what you do! -f, --force-detection Try to identify the card, even if it is active. -t, --chip-type <card> Explicitly set the chip.
