Does a NIC support 100 Mbps?

[Jose M. del Rio]

Is it possible to know, via software (i.e not looking at the card itself), whether a LAN card is 10 Mbps or 10/100 Mbps?
I know two indirect ways:
- using lanscan+lanadmin, looking at the card's description
- using SAM, if the card supports 10/100, there are some additional options to choose AutoNegotiation ON/OFF, 10 or 100 Mpbs...
Any direct way?
Thanks in advance.

Hi:

I use:

# lanadmin -x # on 11.x

# lanadmin -x # on 10.x

Thanks for the answers.
I have actually used lanadmin -x and:
- works fine for our L2000 servers
- fails in R380 servers ("Error: This option is not supported for this hardware.").
Maybe the difference is:
- the NIC at R380 servers is, as reported by ioscan, a "Built-in LAN", driven by the lan2 driver.
- the NIC at L2000 servers is a "PCI Ethernet", driven by btlan3.

Vincenzo,
It is surely my fault but I haven't found anything related to my question at your link.
