Re: Gigabit ethernet

please make sure that you are using a 4 pair fully connected cat5 cable,
a 2pair connected cat5 cable will connect 100megabit but not gigabit.

Hello,

I use 2.6.9-34.0.2.ELsmp kernel on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS
release 4 box.

# lspci |grep -i ethernet
02:01.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546GB Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (rev 03)

Eth1 card is connected on a 2950 cisco switch (on a giga port RJ45,
speed 1000 and duplex full ).

When i use :

ethtool -s eth1 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off, then mii-tool -v
gives me :

eth1: negotiated, link ok
product info: vendor 00:50:43, model 2 rev 5
basic mode: autonegotiation enabled
basic status: autonegotiation complete, link ok
capabilities: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD

How to activate 1000baseTx-FD ?

Many thanks in advance.
