We have had nothing but great success using the Compaq DL series platforms with
SecurePlatform. We have many clients in production in this manner, and by far
seems to be the most reliable hardware for SecurePlatform. I cant comment on
the Broadcom NICS, but I do know that the stock Compaq FE/GE cards work well.

Broadcom NIC
Basically, because the autoconfig didn't properly set up the NIC (speed was
right, duplex was wrong), we couldn't reliably communicate with the firewall,
dropped connections, etc. The firewall was useless until we got the local site
tech to redo the NIC configuration so that we could communicate with the box.
I haven't seen any kernel PANICs on any of the ones I've been working with (3
DL360's, 2 DL380's, 1 DL320 so far) at my current client.

Hi,
What kind of major issue did you have ?
We have the same configuration except that whe have in addition some Dual Intel
Pro 100 ethernet cards. When some FTP flow go through the FW, the system PANIC
with an KERNEL error.
Bye.

Yes, several of them in fact. Note that in some cases you need to hardcode the
speed of the NIC's, - I had problems with one box not properly autonegotiating
which caused major issues.
Add a line after "alias eth0..." in /etc/modules.conf:
options bcm5700 line_speed=xx full_duplex=yy
Replace xx with the speed (10,100,1000)
Replace yy with 1 for full duplex or 0 for half duplex
For more than 1 NIC (obviously there will be at least 2), add the parameters as
a comma separated list
Ex: options bcm5700 line_speed=100,10 full_duplex=1,0 will set eth0 to 100
Mb/FDX, eth1 to 10 Mbit/HDX, assuming eth0 and eth1 are the Broadcom NIC's

Hi,
Has anyone got Secureplatform (any version) working on HP/Compaq DL 360 G3 with
Broadcom 5700 Gigabit NICs?
TIA,
Siddhartha
