This machine is running on FreeBSD-6.2 (i386). For some reasons, the bge0 NIC interface does not seem to support 1000baseTX settings. When the NIC card is set at either 10/100 baseTX, the bge0 interface shows an active state. However, when I type the following command: ifconfig bge0 media 1000baseTX the status of the bge0 NIC card shows: no carrier Does that mean that this bge0 NIC card does not support speeds of 1000baseTX or do I have to tweak some kernel or sysctl settings? Thanking you.... - -- With best regards and good wishes, Yours sincerely, Tek Bahadur Limbu (TAG/TDG Group) Jwl Systems Department Worldlink Communications Pvt. Ltd.
