How to modfy speed for LAN device

[Chaim Budnick]

I need to modify the speed of a LAN device to 100 and to set it as DUPLEX, and I haven't the slightest idea how this is accomplished.

I tried invokinp LANCP help, but I could NOT find anything helpful.

Chaim,
medit=twisted set RJ45 port; on some old alpha server there was the BNC connector too to you could set BNC instead twisted pair.

Chaim,

To see the device characteristics do

LANCP> show device /characteristics DEV
or
LANCP> show device /parameters DEV

You will see how the device is configured.

Another question:

Does the SET command modify both the volatile and permanent database. I.E. when the system reboots will the new settings be kept with the set command?

Chaim

To save the setting, use DEFINE rather than
SET. SET does the volatile, DEFINE does the
permanent.

Thanks!

So, in fact I have to enter he same command TWICE, once with SET and once with DEFINE? Is this correct?

Chaim

[David B Sneddon]

The help seems to indicate that the two commands
are required.

I think I can answer my own last question:

I should use:

define ewao /volatile
