changed the parameters. but this is only applicable for hme
or nge interfaces for interfaces like e1000g0 ,g1.. the
process is different, I m mentioning the process in the
second stage.

nge0 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps
duplex: full
nge1 link: down speed: 0 Mbps
duplex: unknown
e1000g0 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps
duplex: full
e1000g1 link: down speed: 0 Mbps
duplex: half
e1000g2 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps
duplex: full
e1000g3 link: down speed: 0 Mbps
duplex: half
e1000g4 link: unknown speed: 0 Mbps
duplex: half
e1000g5 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps
duplex: full


for e1000g0, e1000g1 ...

we need to change the parameters in the kernal drivers
#cd /kernel/drv

#vi e1000g0 , you will see all the possible options to for
full and half duplex. just change the values and save the file.
