    ********************** The ANSWER ****************************

    Set on the P00>> (Boot prompt)
    eaw0_mode = FastFD

    Add this line in /etc/inet.local
    /usr/sbin/lan_config -i ee0 -a 0 -s 100 -x 1

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Managers,

    We have a AlphaServer ES40 running version 5.1
    The ethernet device is configured as auto-negotiate.

    What I would do is to set the ethernet device ee0 to 100Mbps Full duplex.
    The output from dia and ifconfig -a is included.

    The question is, how do I change the specs of the device ?

    Thanks,
    Gert Maaskant
