I am running a firewall on HP DL380 and attached to a Proventia G400 and
I am having trouble getting the nic's to run at 100/FD.  When I hard
code them on the Proventia, firewall and switch it causes the nic on the
firewall to go to "no link".  When I set it to Auto neg on the firewall
and Proventia it goes to 100/HD.  I can not seem to make this work
running a 100/half.  I have had the network person set the speed on the
switch to Auto neg and when I hard code everything to 100/FD it shows up
on the switch as 100/HD.
 
I) I have swapped cables out (both the cross over and  straight cable
connection)
2) Changed nics from integrated to Intel Pro/1000 Dual Port
3) changed ports on switch
4) went directly from the firewall to the switch (bypassing Proventia)
and can run at 100/FD.
5) RMA'd the Proventia box - same problem
 
Spoke with Checkpoint they say its not a problem on the firewall since
it can run at 100/FD when connected directly to the switch. 
ISS so far has no suggestions and has not responded.
 
I was hoping someone else might be running with a Proventia and firewall
and could tell me how they made it work while running at 100/FD.
 
Thanks,
Annette
