(currently VMS 6.2-1H3) Arne, go to console level and type: >>> show ewa0_mode To see the list of allowed modes, just type something like: >>> set ewa0_mode xxx You should make sure that you AlphaStation and the switch agree on the speed and if half- or fullduplex. If you don't have an ALPLAN ECO installed, than I guess you have the DE500-XA variant installed. Autonegotiaton might not always work properly and nasty things can happen otherwise. -- Uwe Zessin Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know. Learn what you don't.
