The Connect from Intel Pro/1000 T to 1000base-t Port on Catalyst 4000 (WS-X4412-2GB-T= module) Not Working Properly

The connect from Intel Pro/1000 T to 1000base-t port on Catalyst 4000 (WS-X4412-2GB-T= module) is not working properly. The Intel Pro/1000 T NIC connects to a 10/100 OK. Auto-negotiation is set at both ends. We can successfully ping across the link. However performance is so poor as to make the connection unusable.

When an Intel Pro/1000 T NIC is connected to a Catalyst switch, the customer may see poor network connections or excessive numbers of dropped packets. The problem arises when a module with a TBI interface transmits an odd byte packet to a receiver with a Gigabit Media Independent Interface (GMII).
The interoperability issue is a result of the implementation of Carrier Extension. Carrier Extension is detailed in sub section 35.2.3.5 in the IEEE 802.3 specification. Carrier Extension can be used to pad the last byte of a packet, so the packet is aligned on an even numbered boundary.

  • Network card: e1000g (Intel PRO/1000 MT) did not working properly

    Hi to everyone!
    I'm having some strange trouble.
    All computers attached to one DLink gigabit switch
    Server #1:
    nf4-based motherboard, Intel PRO/1000 MT net card, onboard net card (forcedeth driver used) Ubuntu Linux 2.6.25 kernel version.
    All just working.
    Server #2:
    nf6-based motherboard, same Intel net card, SunOS 5.11 snv_86.
    All just working.
    Server #3:
    Same as server's #1 nf4-based motherboard. Same onboard card. Same SunOS 5.11 snv_86 as server #2 have installed.
    Its work. BUT..
    Intel card is not working as expected.
    It is seen by system. It is properly up and running. It is sending packent and receiving packets. Ierrs=Oerrs=Collis=Queue=0.
    But thru e1000g0 interface no one computer can reach this one, and from server #3 no one computer is seen thru e1000g0. Exept...
    Except two old Sunray1 devices (attached to the same switch for testing purposes)! But even these devices seen only by arp requests, and is not pingable.
    It is some mistery, but if I turn on jubmo frames, these rays got a picture from SRSS, testing on this sevrer! Not for long, heh, they hung up fast, but this is proof a physical connection :)
    So, I can not disable onboard network card on Server #3 - server becoming unreachable :(
    I know, those network cards must work on Solaris - as they did it on server #2. I know, those network cards work with my nf4-based motherboards - as they did it on server #1.
    But I can't uderstand, whait is going on with e1000g driver on server #3!
    P.S. Kernel driver e1000g settings are the same. All difference from servers #2 and #3 is: #2 had Intel netcard installed then Solaris was setting up, and #3 had Intel netcard installed later. All netcards are working (I trying to swap them from one computer to another - did not change anything).

    *) #3 thinks it is sending, but a NIC/driver error prevents it.NIC is fully health. It is tested on another PC. Driver error - or driver's bad implementation - is the one I'm thinking.
    *) #3 has a bad transmit pair of wires (would affect all communication)This patchcord works w/o problems on other PCs and even on onboard NIC of server #3.
    *) Network problemsHeh :)
    *) Firewall or other device is dropping the ARP repliesIt is some very stealthy and very selective firewall, affecting only external NICs :)
    BTW, then cord is attached to NIC, it sends "who has this IP" requests, asking to be shure there will not be an IP conflict. No one seen this requests.
    *) #1 has a NIC/driver error preventing it from seeing the reply.Only for send from #3? It is like a firewall on #3 :) And, there is more PCs, not only #1-#3. No one can see #3's replays (or asks), not only #1..
    I'm repeating: this PC works in network now on onboard NIC w/o problems. But onboard NIC is only 100 Mb/s, and we need 1 Gb/s.
    I was thinking, Solaris took wrong MAC for NICs - but not, ifconfig shows the same MACs as marked on NICs.
    Even more, yesterday i plumbed e1000g1 - second Intel NIC in server #3. And I was surprised - it worked perfectly!
    But I make "touch /reconfigure; init 6" - and after reboot, no one of two Intel NICs working again :( They both have the same behavior - no one can see packets they sends.)
    I even try to restrict connection on 100 Mb/s by driver's .conf modify - it works, link become yellow instead of green (take a note, NIC is able to "speak" properly with switch!), but all other stay the same.
    Strange, really strange behavior. More strange is a fact this NICs work on another instance of same SunOS, but on different motherboard, while the same MB with same NIC is working w/o problems under Ubuntu. Looks like some bug in Solaris driver.

  • Lenovo/IBM 8113-d5u + Intel 945 + Intell Pro 1000 PM

    We recently received some boxes from Lenovo part number 8113-d5u. They use
    the Intell 945 chipset and have an integrated Intel Pro 1000 PM on a PCIE bus.
    When we PXE boot it fails to find drivers for ethernet. This happens
    during the loading of linux.2. We added e1000.ko to the list of drivers to
    load in /etc/nwdriverList but this does not work.
    Error message on PXE boot is:
    "Unable to detect network card. Check documentation for list of supported
    cards."
    From dmesg when loading the e1000 module:
    e1000: no version magic, tainting kernel.
    Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 5.6.10.1-k2
    Copyright (c) 1999-2004 Intel Corporation.
    This board is the first board we've had with a PCIE connected ethernet
    controller.
    We are using a modified PXE image (from Novell forge with SATA support),
    but the same error happens on the vanilla one from Novell.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Unsure if you mean the same as we have here using IBM T60 and M52, added
    the latest intel driver to our imaging environment and it worked. Trying
    to load to forge but can't see where to load. Using Zfd 4 SP6.
    I had to build a Linux box to create the driver file, used Redhat 7.3 so
    that we had an old version of GCC to compile.
    Drop me an email if you want me to send our linux.1 and linux.2 or just
    the e1000.o
    Remove the __ to email me
    Thanks

  • How to install  driver for Intel Pro 1000 PCI Network-card

    Hello,
    I just bought the a.m. Intel Pro 1000 Network adapter, but I don't know at all how to install the driver for Solaris 10.
    The installation instructions delivered from Intel didn't help me at all, because I can't uncompress the INTCGigae.pkg and the INTCGigaE.tar.z files.
    I copied them to /tmp and folllowed Intel's Installlation Instructions.
    Please keep in mind I am new to Solaris 10, with no Linux/Unix experience, when helping me.
    Thanks in advance for help and assistance.

    Hi!
    And what happens if you install the driver from the Toshiba WLAN portal:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan
    I still dont know what you mean with Askey for Toshiba
    You should try to install the driver manually. Choose in device manager the WLAN card, right click and select Update Driver. Choose the advanced installation where you can choose the driver directory yourself and navigate to the folder where you have stored the downloaded driver.

  • Gigabit EtherChannel between 6509 and Intel Pro/1000 MTx

    I am trying to configure gigabit etherchannel to connect our backup server with a 6509. The Intel Pro/1000 MT nic in the server has two gigabit ports and supports teaming using LACP. I have configured two gig ports on the 6509 as layer 2 etherchannel ports ( channel-group 2 mode active ). The switch ports always show up as disabled. I can't seem find any documentaion on connecting server to switch using etherchannel ( although the Intel Pro MT nic documentaion does mention it ). Does anyone have experience doing this ?

    We always just use load balancing on the Intel NICs and do nothing with the switch but make sure that the ports are in the correct vlan.
    We have been using this for over 3 years flawlessly.
    Our switches are a Cat4006 and Cat4506.

  • P35 Platinum - Intel PRO 1000 MT Network Adapter problem

    Greetings.
    Found out very strage thing - installation of "Intel PRO 1000 MT  Network Adapter" in any PCI slot disabled onboard Intel raid controller!  :(
    If this card installed Intel Matrix Storage Manager screen  do not appear in boot process and Raid do not listed in Boot Sequence bios options, instead
     I can see Network Adapter in this list. I tryed "Boot from othe devices" option, bus it not work too.
    So with this adapter installed I'm not able to boot from raid.
    Currently I use bios version 1.4
    Any idea how to solve this?
    P.S. Installation of old 3COM 3C905CX-TX-M Adapter did not have such effect, but there is no Win x64 drivers for it.

    Hi Maesus,
    Thanks, I did and filled information about my computer configuration.
    Hope it'll help solve the problem.
    AaronYuri, thans go reply.
    But maybe it's some misundestanding - when I say that installation of Intel adapter in PCI slot "disabled onboard Intel raid controllr" it does not mean that raid controller disabled in bios settings - settings in "Integrated Peripherals->On-chip ATA devices" are the same (PCI IDE BusMaster = Enabled, Raid mode = RAID), but it's looks like bios "did not see" raid controller - it disappers from list of devices to boot from and I did not see screen of Intel Matrix in boot proces (this screen alwais presents if controller switched in raid mode) 

  • Please Help: Intel Pro 1000 NIC not detected by Solaris 10

    Hi there,
    I just installed Solaris 10 in my Dell Dimension 8400 w/ an Intel Pro 1000 Gigabit on-board NIC. However, the network doesn't work. I checked "ifconfig -a" and only lo0 showed up. Anybody can give me any instruction to make it work? I guess I need to install the driver (e1000g?) first.
    I'm totally new for Solaris... (I used Fedora Linux for a while though). Thanks a lot for you help!

  • Cannot connect from Mac Pro late 2013 to Macbook Pro

    Cannot connect from Mac Pro late 2013 to Macbook Pro . I have tried via ethernet and wifi. I can connect from the MBP to the Mac Pro but not vice versa. I have tried to connect to other MBP's on the same network with no luck. I try and connect as a registered user, as I usually do, with no luck. When I enter the Username and then Password the box vibrates as if the details are incorrect, they are not however.
    Thanks in advance

    It is 'just not working' again.
    To answer you question. Other sharing services work. I can connect as a guest. I can share screens. I cannot air drop.
    I cannot connect either way now i.e. from Mac Pro to MBP and vice versa.
    I cannot connect to my wife MBP either. My wife cannot connect to my Mac Pro.
    It neither works with wifi or ethernet cable.
    I can connect to my Time Capsule directly and Time Machine backups are working.
    The passwords are 100% correct.
    The Mac Pro is a late 2013. Does anyone else have a similar problem? I have never suffered this one before. Seriously effecting my workflow

  • Sharing Vodafone 3G USB Modem connection from XP Pro

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie with Mac and am trying to share the connection my XP Pro SP3 laptop has with the Vodafone 3G USB Modem. I've tried ICS on the XP Laptop and no good, I've tried connecting the modem to the Mac and sharing the connection via System Prefs / Network & Sharing but still no good. Any help appreciated.
    I also have a Vonage device (IP Phone) which is currently connected to the XP Laptop ethernet (Connection is shared from the dial up).
    I need to be able to share the single connection with the Mac, Laptop and Vonage.

    USB 3G modems are not designed to be shared they are designed to be used by 1 computer at a time.
    Some people have used software sharing on the mac to share a usb 3g modem connection but had unexpected results.
    You can however get routers that can share 3g modems something like this

    I had a repair done on my MacBook Pro and had to have a new hard drive installed. The Apple Auth Repair Shop then updated the OS from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5. Now my iPhoto v 9.2.3 will not open and it sounds like it will not work with this OS. Can you please advise?

    You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • How do I connect to Time Capsule from a Windows 8.1 machine which is on a Windows domain. I have been able to connect from a Windows 7 machine on a Windows domain to a Time Capsule. Airport utility is not displaying the Time Capsule Win8.1 machine

    How do I connect to Time Capsule from a Windows 8.1 machine which is on a Windows domain. I have been able to connect from a Windows 7 machine on a Windows domain to a Time Capsule. Airport utility is not displaying the Time Capsule Win8.1 machine.
    I have checked that the firmware has been updated to 7.6.4 . Similalrly the Win8.1 machine has been loaded with the update specified in another discussion.

    Firstly how are you connecting to the TC.. wireless or ethernet?
    Please open a command window and ping it.. ping by name and by IP address.
    If ping succeeds at least by IP it should work.
    In windows explorer type
    \\10.0.1.1 (or whatever the TC ip is.. that is the default).
    Having the airport utility for windows loaded can help the process. As it loads bonjour for windows.
    7.6.4 firmware on the TC is useless. It works better on 7.6.1
    If the ping does not succeed by either name or IP address yet you have internet through the TC, then your network is setup wrongly. You are have firewalls blocking local IP. Take down all the firewalls.

  • Where can i find the upgrade from logic pro 7.1.1 to 7.2?

    Hello there.
    Is the upgrade from logic pro 7.1.1 to 7.2 still available out there somewhere? I know I'm a bit behind the rest of the world but financially I'm taking the 'do the best with what you can' route!
    Never used logic before, moving up from garageband and cubase sx cos everyone says it's a better program.
    Many thanks,
    GDx

    Hi
    If I remember correctly, the 7.2 update was a "Paid for" update, with a new dvd.... so you are most likely out of luck.
    The good news is that Logic Pro is pretty cheap on the Appstore
