Yes. However I did some more tests today and saw that this particular port had trouble getting the link from several switches (Enterasys, HP, 3Com, ...) and with different cables (it had a 2 meter CAT6 certified cable, so it should be ok, but I also tested shorter cables), the other port of that NIC didn't have that kind of problem, so I'm wondering if there is a problem with this port or this position of the passthrough or similar (I have spoken to local HP staff and they say that the passthrough shouldn't be the problem here, but I can't find any other explanation). > Please use 'ethtool -S eth3' to get more detailed statistics, and > 'ethtool -t eth3' to run a self-test (note this will break the link > temporarily), and send the output of these. After finding the problem with the link I have configured the other port of the bnx2 nic, eth2, which is getting the link ok this port seems to transfer much better (lower errors and thus greater speed) I got like 40MB/s compared to the 4 MB/s that I was getting out of the other one. I'm sending current data for eth2 then: eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:23:7d:30:9c:e2 inet addr:10.10.50.243 Bcast:10.10.50.243 Mask:255.255.255.255 inet6 addr: fe80::223:7dff:fe30:9ce2/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1411482 errors:1244 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:1244 TX packets:396964 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2111018119 (1.9 GiB) TX bytes:28042522 (26.7 MiB) Interrupt:16 Memory:f8000000-f8012800 NIC statistics: rx_bytes: 2111017191 rx_error_bytes: 0 tx_bytes: 28042522 tx_error_bytes: 0 rx_ucast_packets: 1389861 rx_mcast_packets: 0 rx_bcast_packets: 21607 tx_ucast_packets: 396955 tx_mcast_packets: 6 tx_bcast_packets: 3 tx_mac_errors: 0 tx_carrier_errors: 0 rx_crc_errors: 1244 rx_align_errors: 0 tx_single_collisions: 0 tx_multi_collisions: 0 tx_deferred: 0 tx_excess_collisions: 0 tx_late_collisions: 0 tx_total_collisions: 0 rx_fragments: 6 rx_jabbers: 9 rx_undersize_packets: 0 rx_oversize_packets: 0 rx_64_byte_packets: 19844 rx_65_to_127_byte_packets: 1393 rx_128_to_255_byte_packets: 548 rx_256_to_511_byte_packets: 42 rx_512_to_1023_byte_packets: 0 rx_1024_to_1522_byte_packets: 1389641 rx_1523_to_9022_byte_packets: 0 tx_64_byte_packets: 4 tx_65_to_127_byte_packets: 396959 tx_128_to_255_byte_packets: 1 tx_256_to_511_byte_packets: 0 tx_512_to_1023_byte_packets: 0 tx_1024_to_1522_byte_packets: 0 tx_1523_to_9022_byte_packets: 0 rx_xon_frames: 0 rx_xoff_frames: 0 tx_xon_frames: 0 tx_xoff_frames: 0 rx_mac_ctrl_frames: 0 rx_filtered_packets: 2193 rx_ftq_discards: 0 rx_discards: 0 rx_fw_discards: 0 The test result is PASS The test extra info: register_test (offline) 0 memory_test (offline) 0 loopback_test (offline) 0 nvram_test (online) 0 interrupt_test (online) 0 link_test (online) 0 Hope this gives us some hints.
