Re: [fw-wiz] PIX 515E 7.2 Duplex problem

Only time I've experienced it was when we had a bad NIC. Did you try
doing the same thing on another interface?

The interface on the PIX shuts down when duplex is changed from
auto to
full. The switch it connects to is configured for full duplex but the
PIX still shows half duplex when in auto negotiate mode. Changing to
half duplex on both the switch and PIX works but the PIX interface
goesdown when it's changed to full duplex. Has anyone else
experienced this
problem?
