Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Parameters

 

 

 

Using the lanadmin Tool with Gigabit Ethernet

 

Card Statistics To display the card statistics, execute:

 

$ lanadmin -x stats drv nmid/ppa

 

See Appendix B for a sample output and explanation of the card statistics.

NOTE

 

Send Buffer Coalescing To display the send buffer coalescing threshold, execute:

 

$ lanadmin -x send_max_bufs nmid/ppa

 

Send buffer coalescing threshold = 16

 

Receive Interrupt Coalescing To display the receive interrupt coalescing ticks,

 

execute:

 

 

$ lanadmin -x recv_coal_ticks nmid/ppa

 

Receive interrupt coalescing ticks = 0

 

Flow Control To display the flow control setting, execute:

 

$ lanadmin -x fctrl nmid/ppa

 

Flow control is enabled

 

 

Setting Values

 

 

The command $ lanadmin -X (or -x) help nmid/ppa displays a list of valid options

 

used to set values.
