Hello Dan:
I have done this two years ago and try to look back on my note and found this:
telnet net to filer:
do ifconfig ? it will tell you how to turn on other interface and setup duplexing too.
Also if you have mount via solaris then goto /vol/vol0/etc and add the same command that you try
to bring interface up in rc file. This is for nextime you reboot the filer and setting will be there for you.
Second question: about tools. I used ethereal for both Solaris and Linux, but you need to etheir use hub to snip
or do some work on cisco so you can snip. Ethereal for Solaris is on disktwo or Software Companion disk Pkg call" SUNWethrs I thinks.
Hopes that help.

I'm trying to bring up a new interface on a pci nic card inside my F740. Without being at the netapp is there any way to see if the nic card is seeing a good link status. Here's what I have:
na4m-be> ifconfig -a e0: flags=200043<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 inet 10.209.68.211 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.209.68.255 ether 00:a0:98:00:52:76 (100tx-fd-up) e2a: flags=200043<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 inet 10.221.88.41 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 10.221.88.47 ether 00:20:fc:1e:20:cc (auto-100tx-up) e2b: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 ether 00:20:fc:1e:20:cd (auto-unknown-cfg_down) e2c: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 ether 00:20:fc:1e:20:ce (auto-unknown-cfg_down) e2d: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 ether 00:20:fc:1e:20:cf (auto-unknown-cfg_down) e3a: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 inet 10.221.88.41 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 10.221.88.47 ether 00:c0:95:e0:f4:00 (auto--down) e3b: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 ether 00:c0:95:e0:f4:01 (auto--down) e3c: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 ether 00:c0:95:e0:f4:02 (auto--down) e3d: flags=42<BROADCAST,RUNNING> mtu 1500 ether 00:c0:95:e0:f4:03 (auto--down) lo: flags=200049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 1536 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 127.0.0.1
I was at the data center the other day and when I plugged the cat5 in the link light lit up so I'm assuming that is all set. I believe I plugged it into the quad card in slot two, and I no for sure I plugged it into the
port
labeled "1". I cannot howerver seem to ping other servers on this
network,
whithin the same subnet. Is there any type of command such as snoop for Solaris or tcpdump for linux where I can see raw network traffic?
My other question is how can I force this link to 100FDX. It's cisco gear on the other side and I know that cisco stuff generally has trouble auto-negotiating.
Thanks Dan
