Every time that I boot my AlphaServer 200 (DU v3.2D-1), the tu0 ethernet
device toggles between UTP (10BASET) and AUI (10BASE5). I'm connected to
the network via tu0's UTP connector.
More specifically, during the boot process it toggles between..
tu0: auto sensing: selected AUI (10BASE5) port: no carrier
and the next boot would appear as..
tu0: auto sensing: selected UTP (10BASET) port
How do I turn off this auto sensing?
At the console level, I have "ewa0_mode Twisted-Pair" set (visible with the
>>> SHOW CONFIG command), but the auto sensing seems to take precedence.
How do I disable this auto sensing, and/or, why would it select the port
with no carrier?
I did power down the machine, thinking this may be necesary for the
"ewa0_mode Twisted-Pair" to take effect. No luck.
