plumb e1000g1

hi,

I hav installed sun 10 on intel xeon 3 Ghz machin with two inbuit giga ethernet port.

after successful installtion sun has detected only 0th giga interface as e1000g0

1) now i want to plump e1000g1 interface. when i plumb i got following o/p:

bash-3.00# ifconfig e1000g1 plumb

ifconfig: SIOCSLIFNAME for ip: e1000g1: no such interface

2) where as if i plumb e1000g0 i got o/p as follows:

bash-3.00# ifconfig e1000g0 plumb

ifconfig: SIOCSLIFNAME for ip: e1000g0: already exists

I am ok with o/p of 2 but why i am getting no such interface for 1

because i can clearly see there are two inbuilt giga interface on motherboard

your help is needed.

thanks in advance

If you run 'ifconfig -a plumb', do you see any other interfaces appear?-- Darren

Yes. That's expected. but what does 'ifconfig -a' show now?If it's still the only interface, then there's some sort of hardware or driver issue occuring.-- Darren

want to more to itI dont think its an driver issue. because both the Ethernet adaptor are buitl on moter board and of same make. so both the adaptor shoud have same drives. one is getting up and not the other seems to be some hardware issue.thanks
