Does D-Class support 100 full duplex

[Randy_9]

I get the following when running "lanadmin"
# lanadmin -x 0
Error: This option is not supported for this hardware.
My interface
# ioscan -fnkC lan
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
===================================================================
lan 0 8/16/6 lan2 CLAIMED INTERFACE Built-in LAN
/dev/diag/lan0 /dev/ether0

Which file in /etc/rc.config.d do I need to
configure? If not 100FD how about 10FD?

Thanks,

Randy

The internal built in lan card for D class servers is a 10 BaseT half duplex interface.

Thats why lanadmin gives you the message.

As best I can recall, D-class systems had built-in 10Mbps only. You needed to purchase 10/100Mbps NICs to install in expansion slots.

And I don't think there is such a thing as 10FD... FD only became available with 100Mpbs bandwidth. If it's 10Mpbs, it's going to be HD.

Try and see what is it set to.
lanadmin > lan > ppa > dis this should show to what it is configured to.

conf will hold this config.
HP_PCI100_SPEED[0]=10FD to set.

Similar is 100FD..
Hope this helps

Hi Randy,

As far as i know 100 FD is not supported on lan0 of a dclass. There are nics available for a D-Class that support 100 FD.
