Title: NIC BCM 5717 not work on endian2.5.2 Post by: manu6600 on Thursday 07 November 2013, 02:37:59 pm I have installed Endian 2.5.2 on HP server, NIC card 5717. After successfully installation, i can get through web interface. then, I try to ping the address but can't be reached. I test the cards from console by ping to itself, it was replied but it can reach other devices on the networks.
Is that NIC card support Endian? Thanks for your help. Title: Re: NIC BCM 5717 not work on endian2.5.2 Post by: manu6600 on Thursday 07 November 2013, 02:52:02 pm Screen shot of NIC BCM 5717

you maybe try dowload the RPM paket of drivers search in google.com Controladores, software y firmware para Adaptador HP Ethernet 1 Gb de 2 puertos 330i ant try to install copy to USB smart install "your route " if the KEY of RPM dont work try smart config -–set rpm-check-signatures=false or smart config –set rpm-check-signatures=False install and reverse the change smart config –set rpm-check-signatures=true reboot and try of work Title: Re: NIC BCM 5717 not work on endian2.5.2 Post by: hadexx on Thursday 06 February 2014, 06:37:38 am try the instruccions to kieronrob
As luck would have it as I post for help I find a solution! This is how I solved it: 1. Connected an ASIX USB NIC and configured it as GREEN 2. Connected a Conexant USB ADSL Modem 3. Connect to the Endian and enable SSH 4. Connect via WinSCP 5. Edit /etc/modprobe.conf and add the following line at the end: install tg3 /sbin/modprobe broadcom; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install tg3 6. Save 7. Edit /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf.dist and add the following lines at the end: install tg3 /sbin/modprobe broadcom; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install tg3; install skfp /sbin/modprobe marvell; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install skfp. Note that these are two seperate lines! 8. Save 9. Reboot 10. Go into the "Network Configuration" menu on the dashboard and the NICs will be available to configure as you wish. 11. Remove the USB NIC if you wish. I have tried this and it works, the cards I have are listed as follows in the lspci output: 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57788 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 01) lspci -n show it as the following: 01:00.0 0200: 14e4:1691 (rev 01) If it stops or gives trouble, I will update. I do not know if these changes will survive and update from Endian, but seeing as they are very few and far between, I suspect it will not be a problem. If they do update the kernel at some point, these hacks should not be necessary and the NICs work fine with newer kernel distros. I hope someone finds this helpful! thk kieronrob |
