Hi Folks-
I was wondering if anyone has found a reliable way of determining if
your NIC is in full-duplex mode. I have found no good way of
determining this (my switches do a really poor job of guessing the
duplex of the Digital Unix boxes) other than kicking the switch into
full duplex mode and looking for errors :(
For instance, under FreeBSD, 'ifconfig interface' will return the
media and mediaopts strings (100baseTX <full-duplex>). Is there any
nice feature like this for Digital Unix (running 4.0B)? Or a syconfig
variable or a kernel variable that we can back out?
Thanks
Sean
