Reg : RHEL 5.0 Installatio

1. look in the output of ifconfig and you'll see a "collisions" field
which should have a value of 0.

2. look at the output of either "ethtool <interface>", or mii-tool
<interface>, and you will see what the port speed is. This must match
the port speed of your switch (your network guys will tell you if the
switch is
100Mb or 1000Mb etc).

Look for output like this which says the interface is running at
100Mb/s. This is bad if you're connected to a 1000Mb switch.

Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Speed: 100Mb/s
Duplex: Full
