The following reply was made to PR kern/110561; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Infraservice hostmaster <hostmaster@Infra-Service.ca> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/110561 "em" driver shuts down interface when "ifconfig media 100baseTX" is invoked Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2007 03:31:54 -0400 (EDT) | | Synopsis: :"em" driver shuts down interface when "ifconfig media 100baseTX" is invoked | | State-Changed-From-To: open->closed | State-Changed-By: remko | State-Changed-When: Tue Mar 20 06:42:06 UTC 2007 | State-Changed-Why: | This is not a bug, this is a problem in the negotiation on the other | side. If the switch you are attaching to is not supporting the fixed | setting of the speed and duplex settings or incorrectly negotiates then | this is not a problem of the driver nor the card but a switching | problem. Please try to findout FIRST what the real problem is and THEN | get back to me if this really is a FreeBSD problem (Discuss this on the | networking mailinglist please > | http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net/). This happens to every interface we tried it on!
