1000Base-SX adapter and VLAN

I have heard there's a patch or updated driver for the A4926A Gigabit cards. Does anyone know where I can get it from? I have heard of a problem with Cisco routers when using these cards and want to make sure I can get it patched up. I have both an N4000 and a L2000 system that need to be patched up. On the N4000, I can configure the card, but I cannot configure any VLAN's and this is vitally important to how our campus network is setup. On the L2000, it just tells me that I need a newer driver even though the install CD's have the same date on them. Any help in locating the right software/patches would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Javier,

Search the ITRC - patch section - for gelan, as that's the driver the A4926A uses.

Rgds,

HTH,

Jeff assumes you know your way around ITRC which is probably not the case so I will give you the link to save you some time.

Click on HPUX and it will let you set your operating system and search for gelan or 1000Base-SX. When I do that for 11.11 and gelan I get 4 patches. PHNE 26939 - s700_800 11.11 1000Base-SX/T B.11.11.14 cumulative patch - includes PHNE_24491:
1. JAGae01128: Users will not be able to use the VLAN functionality on Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
