Hi all,

I just came accross and interesting problem - with autnegotiation
(re-negotiation?).
I have Compaq 1850R with 'tl' interface (FreeBSD 4.4R) and Sun Netra
connected to
Cisco switch 35xx. I use link auto-negotiation on both sides for both hosts.

Ater reset of Cisco switch and also after power cycling the switch:
- Sun seems to be happy.
- Compaq with FreeBSD the tl0 interface accepts ARP requests from other
hosts
- Compaq host sends ARP reply (as seen with tcpdum on tl0)
- switch sees the packed with CRC error
- this setup works perfectly for both Sun and NT, 
  (which puts me into position of envagelist of _no-go_ platform :-(((

It seems that the link is not re-negotiated(?).

I went through sources and there are some changes in CURRENT introducing
link_changed method/callback, but it doen not not seem to be directly
related 
(and it's not in RELEASE).

Any hints or pointers ?

	Thanks in advance,
	Milon
