Hi, Finally I found the solution to our packet loss problem on the ENP-2505. When Intel delivered the boards, the only software we received were the following CD's: -IXA SDK 2.01 Volume II CD1 & 2 -IXA EDU Workstation CD containing some updates, VMWare and the ENP-2505 driver Well, this ENP-2505 driver seems to be the cause of our packet loss problems. A couple of weeks ago, I found a document on the internet, titled "Linux Setup guide for ENP-XXXX", referencing to a Radisys patch for the IXA SDK 2.01. Because I didn't have the patch (I thought this was the cause of the problem), I contacted Radisys support and they offered me to download their ENPSDK 2.01 CD, which contains the patch. BUT, more important, this CD also contains a different version of the ENP-2505 driver, named boot_drv-2.0.1-3.src.rpm (instead of boot_drv-2.0-1.src.rpm on the Intel supplied CD). Installing this driver and recompiling the ENP-2505 linux kernel solved our problem! Even in the document "Linux Setup guide for ENP-XXXX", which resides on the Radisys CD, they refer to "boot_drv-2.0-1.src.rpm" instead of the version on their CD, which has led to confusion.

Hi,
In order to investigate the packet loss issue on our ENP-2505 board, we would like to know how we can set the IXF440 ports fixed, thus turning off the autonegotiation. Does anyone know how to configure these (4) ports?
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,
Tim
