2. Set the parameters for the ipge devices in the

/kernel/drv/ipge.conf

file.

In the following example, the adv_autoneg_cap and adv_1000fdx_cap
parameters are set for all Sun PCI-Express Dual Gigabit Ethernet devices. See the
driver.conf(4)

man page for more information.

In the following example, the adv-autoneg-cap and adv-1000fdx-cap
parameters are set for a single instance of the ipge device.

Note –

If you omit the name=, parent=, and unit-address= definitions, the

settings become global to all Sun PCI-Express Dual Gigabit Ethernet instances.

3. Save the ipge.conf file.
