Hi,
Both the filer and switch are set to 100-FD. I'm not seeing any collisions, only CRC errors. Cabling has been replaced to see if they went away, but to no avail.

As an aside, have you run a filer into a 100Mb/s port on a S48? I'm

wondering if anyone else is seeing/has seen this.
We've got a F230 running 100-FD with a Summit 48. We found that we had better results if we hard set both devices to 100-FD and turned off negotiation.
The F200/F300 series on-board ethernet doesnot autonegotiate. So if you had the filer's ethernet interface set to operate in 100BaseTx-FD, the corresponding switch port should also be set to operate in 100BaseTX-FD.
When speed/duplex mismatches occur, depending on the switch to which the filer's interface is connected, you will see CRC errors and collisions. You will definitely see poor network throughput.
