Issues while forcing Speed / Duplex on �bge� Ethernet cards on Solaris 10
807557Feb 27 2008 — edited Apr 8 2008The standard settings in the /etc/system file, normally used to lock the Ethernet interface to 100 / Full Duplex don�t seem to work.
Normally, the settings in /etc/system would look something like this:
set bge:use_int_xcvr=0
set bge:adv_100fdx_cap=1
set bge:adv_100hdx_cap=0
set bge:adv_10fdx_cap=0
set bge:adv_10hdx_cap=0
set bge:adv_autoneg_cap=0
Unfortunately,above settings in /etc/system file doesn't seems to be working as the kernel gives the following errors at boot:
sorry, variable 'use_int_xcvr' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_1000fdx_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_1000hdx_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_100fdx_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_100hdx_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_10fdx_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_10hdx_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
sorry, variable 'adv_autoneg_cap' is not defined in the 'bge' module
Failed to configure IPv4 interface(s): lo0:1
Pls let me know how these settings can be forced on Ethernet Interface bge on Solaris 10(We're using Netra 210).
