Installing and Configuring 10/100Base-TX/9000

Compatibility and Installation Requirements

Manually configuring the speed or duplex setting of a switch port on some switches may disable that switch port from doing autonegotiation. Verify that both the card and the switch port are operating in the same speed and duplex mode as desired.

If you use manual configuration to change the card to a different speed and duplex mode, you may need to turn autonegotiation on first before the manual setting takes place.

Mismatches between the speed, autonegotiation, or duplex mode of the card and switch will cause incorrect operation.

Specific items for each installed 10/100Base-TX interface card can be configured by creating an array of variables, where each array index corresponds to one interface card; refer to the existing contents of the hpBasetconf file for more detail. For each 10/100Base-TX interface card whose duplex mode is to be set, entries of the following form must be made in the hpBasetconf file:

HP_BaseT_INTERFACE_NAME[n]=NameUnit

HP_BaseT_SPEED[n]= [10HD 10FD 100HD 100FD auto_on]

NameUnit is the name of the interface to be configured, which can be determined from the output of the lanscan command. n is the array index which should start at 0 but which itself bears no relation to specific interfaces.

For example, if the name of the 10/100Base-TX interface to configure as shown by lanscan is lan3, and this is the only interface to be configured, the entries in the hpBasetconf file to “permanently” configure this interface to full duplex mode across system reboots would be:

HP_BaseT_INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan3

HP_BaseT_SPEED[0]=[10FD 100FD auto_on]

If there were a second 10/100Base-TX interface with the name of lan4 on the system whose duplex mode were also to be “permanently” configured to full-duplex, the additional entries in the hpBasetconf file would be:

HP_BaseT_INTERFACE_NAME[1]=lan4

HP_BaseT_SPEED[1]=[10FD 100FD auto_on]

To determine the current duplex mode of the card, use the -xoption of the lanadmin command as explained earlier.
