Using Device Reference Pages
Only devices that require special configuration for running Solaris Intel Platform
Edition have Device Reference Pages.
Refer to the device manufacturer’s documentation for procedures to change device
settings.
When removing adapters for inspection and configuration, note how cables are
inserted in sockets. Some connectors are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion;
others are not.
Device Reference Pages specify the supported connector type where appropriate.
All network devices are assumed to work at 10 Mbps only, unless otherwise
specified in the Device Reference Pages. Following are network connectors and the
media they support.
Connector
Supported
Media Comments Speed
RJ-45 10BASE-T Category-3 Twisted Pair cable 10 Mbps
RJ-45 100BASE-TX Category-5 Twisted Pair cable 100 Mbps
BNC 10BASE2 Coax cable (“Thin” Ethernet cable) 10 Mbps
AUI 10BASE5 Shielded Twisted Pair
(“Thick” Ethernet cable)
10 Mbps
If a device has selectable configuration parameters, you usually choose the default
settings. The Device Reference Pages show settings the Solaris software supports
and known conflicts.
