Try the lanadmin command and see what it gives you for the card.

lanadmin

Hi


lanscan give you the ppa no for the interface you want to see ,

do a lanadmin -x < ppa no.> it will give you the current value , incase you want to know all the stat do a lanadmin -g < ppa no.>


man lanadmin is the best refernce.

Hi,

Do a lanscan and note the Card In# (ppa in third column) corresponding to the lan adapter's path.

Then do a lanadmin -x card In#

It will display the lan card's speed and it's duplex information. If it is auto sensing, it would display it as "AUTO_ON".

To turn of AUTO_ON and set it to 100 Full duplex, use the command

lanadmin -X CardIn# 100FD.

This will take 11 secs and the interface will be down. You will need to make sure that the switch port is also set to the same configuration.

To make it permanently, edit the corresponding /etc/rc.config.d/hp*conf file. For gsc 100bt card, it would be hpgsc100coonf. Syntax is already exampled in that file.

lanadmin -x ppa to see the setting 11x
the -X option lets you change the setting

lanadmin -s nmid to see the setting in 10.20
