If you are using a CISCO switch, this may be the cause. You have your media type set to auto. Netapp and Cisco do not negotiate well together. My suggestion would be to force the NIC to full duplex and force the port on the switch also. Also, i have never used 0.0.0.0 to specify "default" before. I am also curious as to what LinkNegotiation does?
I've got an Extreme Networks Black Diamond switch, and our F230 won't auto-negotiate 100-BT-fd with that either. Of course, neither will our Cisco 7507. It's ironic that the two more important bits on my network won't negotiate their connection speeds, but lots of irrelevant little workstations will.
