I know how to read the speed, but how do I check duplex and negotiation on an ethernet interface? In first hand for the Sam440ep-Flex machine.

Try http://os4depot.net/index.php?function= ... ometer.lha and it comes with sources

Thank you. Actually that's the program I'm currently enhancing and is partly the reason for my question.

If you still can't find anything we'll need to bother Olaf (Roadshow) to find out what he did.

I just did 20 seconds before reading your message.

But unfortunately it doesn't mention duplex or auto-negotiation. I guess the driver should (and probably is) take care of it, but the SANA stuff should be able to at least display settings if not being able to configure it.

I guess Olaf is the first to talk to and maybe second, Acube.

All this - Duplex and AutoNeg - is done at driver level. The TCP/IP stack and also no other software has any idea about this. There is also no way to get that information from the driver, at least not an officially defined way, so if a driver provides this, it is a private extension to that specific driver.

Okay, thanks. You may see it as a feature request then.

Ah good. We do need more people to help work on the SANA-II standard. Welcome aboard!
