DESCRIPTION

eepro100-diag is a program that you can use to diagnose problems with ethernet cards based the "Speedo3" chip series: the i82557, ’558 and ’559. These chips are used on the EtherExpress Pro100B, and EEPro PCI 10+.

OPTIONS

These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (‘-’). A summary of options is included below.
−h, −−help

Show summary of options.

−V, −−version

Show version of program.

−v, −−verbose

Verbose mode.

−q, −−quiet

Be very unverbose.

−# <cardnum>, −−card_num <cardnum>

Use card number <cardnum>.

−a, −−show_all_registers

Print all registers.

−e, −−show-eeprom

Dump EEPROM contents to stdout.

−E, −−emergency-rewrite

Re-write a corrupted EEPROM.

−p, −−port−base <port>

Specify port to use.

−A, −−Advertise <mediaype>

Advertise media type. Valid Options are: 10baseT, 100baseT4, 100baseTx, 100baseTx-FD, 100baseTx-HD, 10baseT-FD and 10baseHD.

−F, −−new−interface <interface>

Interface number. Options that make sense are: 10baseT, 10base2, AUI, 100baseTx, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTx-FDX, 100baseT4, 100baseFx, 100baseFx-FDX, MII and Autosense.

−H, −−new−hwaddress <address>

Set card to a new hardware address.

−m, −−show-mii

Dump MII management registers.

−R, −−reset

Reset the transceiver.

−T, −−test

Do register and SRAM test.

−w, −−write−EEPROM <values>

Write to the EEPROMS with the specified values. Do not use this, if you do not know what you do!

−f, −−force−detection

Try to identify the card, even if it is active.

−t, −−chip−type <card>
