My /etc/system file has the following entries:
set eri:eri_adv_autoneg_cap=0
set eri:eri_adv_100T4_cap=0
set eri:eri_adv_100fdx_cap=1
set eri:eri_adv_100hdx_cap=0
set eri:eri_adv_10fdx_cap=0
set eri:eri_adv_10hdx_cap=0

When I display the settings:
ndd /dev/eri adv_100fdx_cap
1
ndd /dev/eri adv_100hdx_cap
1
ndd /dev/eri adv_10fdx_cap
1
ndd /dev/eri adv_10hdx_cap
1
ndd /dev/eri adv_autoneg_cap
1
ndd /dev/eri link_status
1
ndd /dev/eri link_speed
1
ndd /dev/eri link_mode
0

So it is running 100 Half Duplex....

I tried running the following, but then I lose connection and no longer able to ping the server...
ndd -set /dev/eri adv_100fdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/eri adv_100hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/eri adv_10fdx_cap 1
ndd -set /dev/eri adv_10hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/eri adv_autoneg_cap 0

Any ideas or suggestions?
 
guessing you set it to 100fdx instead o 10fdx!?

Can you login to the server over serial interface (terminal, terminalconcentrator)?

ndd /dev/eri link_status
1
ndd /dev/eri link_speed
1
ndd /dev/eri link_mode
0

What I get from this is:
that it is up, running at 100 but in Half Duplex....

Want to run Full Duplex....

Thanks....
 
Your /etc/system file is wrong eri interfaces are not setup the same as hme. You need to change it to:
Code:
set eri:[COLOR=red]adv[/color]_autoneg_cap=0
set eri:[COLOR=red]adv[/color]_100T4_cap=0
set eri:[COLOR=red]adv[/color]_100fdx_cap=1
set eri:[COLOR=red]adv[/color]_100hdx_cap=0
set eri:[COLOR=red]adv[/color]_10fdx_cap=0
set eri:[COLOR=red]adv[/color]_10hdx_cap=0

I also recommend not to mess with the NDD command through a remote session. Unless there is not other alternative solution.
