Configure Lan card to run 1GB

[Andrew Penning_1]

Hi - I am trying to configure my lan card on my RP3440 to run at 1GB. The card is a A4929A PCI 1000BASE-T card and is connected to a CISCO 6500 switch with a 1GB mocule. The port on the switch is set to Auto/Auto and the lan card is set to Auto & full duplex. Operating system is HP-UX 11.23

Unlike the 10/100Mb cards, the Gb drivers are best left to auto-negotiate. You say you have it set to auto and full - I would suggest setting it to just auto.

Hi,

To set manually, the command is

#lanadmin -X mode ppa

you can find the ppa from

#lanscan output

Regards,

Siva.

Run "lanadmin -X auto_on PPA" to set the speed of the card to auto negotiate to the max speed of the switch.

Also verify the config file for the card's driver, /etc/rc.config.d/hpDRIVERlanconf file.
