*The speed configuration of the 10/100Base-TX card is determined by

 

the speed setting of the hub or switch port to which the card is

 

connected. The card automatically senses this speed. The card only

 

runs at one speed at a time. To verify the speed selection, use the

 

LED indicators on the front of the 10/100Base-TX card as shown

 

below or run lanadmin and check the link speed and duplex mode at

 

the LAN Interface Status Display.

(DLPI). Refer to the DLPI Programmer’s Guide for more detailed
