On RH-based OS (Centos, Fedora), you can use the ethtool command to set the speed of the port. For example, to set the speed on your eth0 NIC to 100mbps, run the following command:
Code:
ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off
You can do the above for half duplex, 10, 1000mbps speed and for different eth settings. Just have to change the appropriate values in the above command.
To make these changes permanently, just add the following line to your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (change your eth setting according to which NIC's speed you want to change):
Code:
ETHTOOL_OPTS="speed 100 duplex full autoneg off"
Then issue:
/etc/init.d/network restart
This will reload the network and the new speed will take effect. Depending on how much traffic there is coming through the NIC at that time, it may take up to a minute for this to happen.
I have had my hosting with AYK since 2006, and it has by far been the best experience I have ever had with any hosting company. The support is always spot on and available around the clock, excellent for me since I'm always working on things at odd hours. They make upgrading to fit needs very clean and easy, the cost is excellent for services received, and they have me as a customer for life.
AYKsolutions - best solution for small/high business I have several plans with them and i can sleep well because their team watch over my servers. I started with a small shared account and now, after two years i have multiple dedicated boxes. I like the way they treat their customers, even if they have a small or a big plan. Their tehnical support is the best i ever meet ( worked with many hosting pro viders ). In one word: If you need cheap and no headache for your internet bussiness, AYKsolutions it's your best choice
