Re: Question about network

ok, let's say it in another way.

Why do i wnat to detect the active NIC?

Most of the machines have Supermicro boards
C7B75 with onbaord Intel 82579V.
This NIC have to much errors an dropped packets,
we never found out (me an Supermicro Netherland)
what the reason is.
So we plug in a Realtek GB NIC, that works.

I will make sure, that autoyast detects the Realtek
NIC as first active NIC.

Some customers bring their own machines which,
for example, have 2 Intel onbaord NICs.
Therer for i search for a method to
detect which NIC is pluged in on a network cable.

Best regards.
