Q57 Netware drive and flowcontrol

[Tony Wyland]

Setting up a DL360 G4 with Netware 6.5 using the Q57.LAN driver. The driver loads and sets the flow control on the gigabit nic to none. I need to have to set to Rx and Tx. How do I get the nic to do flowcontrol? Command line parameter, nic utility, ....? BTW: The gigabit switch is set to enable flow control and an Intel NIC will automatically do it.

Tony:

here are the load line parameters for flow control for the Q57.LAN:

TxFlow=
·This keyword allows enabling/disabling of TxFlow control.
· Choices are: ON, OFF
· Default is OFF

RxFlow=
·This keyword allows enabling/disabling of RxFlow control.
· Choices are: ON, OFF
· Default value is OFF


Hope this is what you were
