Verifying the Correct Drivers are Loaded

The following section describes how to check if the correct drivers are
loaded for NetWare and Linux.

NetWare

To verify that the NetWare driver software is loaded correctly, perform the
following procedure.

1. To verify that the driver is loaded properly, type:

LOAD B57.LAN FRAME_ETHERNET_II NAME=B57_1_EII

This command automatically verifies if the link is active. If the link is
active, it displays "Link is up".

2. From the command line, type config then press Enter.

The following status information is displayed:

Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Adapter

Version:
Hardware Setting:
Node Address:
Frame Type:
Board Name:
Lan Protocol: ARP (see note)
LAN Protocol: IP Addr: (see note)

Note

The LAN protocol status appears after assigning an IP address to
the adapter (that is, bind).

Linux

To verify that the Linux driver software is loaded correctly, perform the
following procedure.

1. To verify that the tg3.o driver is loaded properly, run:

lsmod

If the driver is loaded, a line similar to the one below appears, where
<size> is the size of the driver in bytes, and <n> is the number of
adapters configured. See Table 7.
