Hi,
When I boot my sun ultra 2 with a hme, my switch doesn't see
the connection as full duplex.
The line in rc.conf is:
ifconfig_hme0="inet 192.168.0.8 netmask 255.255.255.0 media autoselect"
Adding or removing the media autoselect seems to make no difference.
An ifconfig shows:
biasca# ifconfig hme0
hme0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>
inet 192.168.0.8 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet6 fe80::a00:20ff:fe89:99ba%hme0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
ether 08:00:20:89:99:ba
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX)
status: active
Now, if I type
ifconfig hme0 media autoselect
the interface drops off the switch and then comes back up
in full duplex.
Now ifconfig shows:
biasca# ifconfig hme0
hme0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>
inet 192.168.0.8 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet6 fe80::a00:20ff:fe89:99ba%hme0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
ether 08:00:20:89:99:ba
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
Is there a handy way to make this happen on boot?
Thanks!
cheers
bruce
