As you can see, it affects both the network cards.
| Manufacturer: | Dell Inc. |
| Model: | PowerEdge T605 |
| Processors: | 8 CPU x 2.094 GHz |
| Processor Type: | Quad-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2352 |
| Hyperthreading: | Inactive |
| Total Memory: | 23.96 GB |
| Number of NICs: | 3 |
| State: | Connected |
| Virtual Machines: | 2 |
| vMotion Enabled: | No |
One NIC shows up as a "Intel 82572EI Gigabit Etnernet Controller" and the other nic shows as a "Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708", third is not used and is shown as "down".
Any ideas?
Thanks!
