Link Speed and Duplex

I need to set my link speed and duplex to 10MB/Full on one of my interface cards because of a transparent lan service which requires it otherwise I will get poor performance over the line. How can I do this in Astaro 5.x?

Thanks for you help!

Hi,

login as loginuser at console than change to root.
Type mii-tool ....
With that tool you can adjust your network speed.

Hi thanks!

Quick question I have several nics in my firewall and I can use the tool to force the connection on some but others give me this message:

SIOCGMIIPHY on ethX failed: Operation Not supported

any Ideas why this would be? Other than the obvious "it not being supported".

These one have chipset which the toll cannot handle... [:(]
Maybe you can change settings by editing modules.conf with different variables for these nics.

Read that some cards just don't Suport MII commands. Not good. I looked at the modules.conf file and if looks like its assigns drivers and aliases to those cards/interfaces. Don't know how to play around with that. Also if I boot will mii-tool's changes remain or do I need to redo it everytime.

Thanks for all your help.
