It works. Thanks a lot.
So setting half-duplex is to disabe full-duplex.:)
I didn't do this before so I was confused in the first place.
But the following statement in the man page of nge driver
probably may need some changes.
===========================================================
The nge driver supports the following media options:
full-duplex Force full duplex operation.
half-duplex Force half duplex operation.
===========================================================
thanks,

This I can help you with. the correct way of doing it is disabling
full-duplex:
# iconfig nge0 media 1000baseTX -mediaopt full-duplex
