Hi all,

I have a strange one here,

I have a Gigabit Ethernet card installed on my SUNFire 6800, the card
functions fine when the machine is up and running but once I reboot
the card does not respond at all, only after I have taken the cable
out and re-inserted it does the card respond? Anybody heard of
something like this? Or are there recommended ndd settings for this
kind of card. I have included the current settings and the
configuration on the switch side.

ndd -set /dev/ge instance 0
ndd -set /dev/ge adv_1000fdx_cap 1
ndd -set /dev/ge adv_1000hdx_cap 1
ndd -set /dev/ge adv_1000autoneg_cap 1

These settings above are located in a startup script in /etc/rc3.d

The switch is on auto speed and auto duplex.

regards

Adrian Phipps
