Use the ethtool command for basic configuration. It is a standard Linux tool to set, view and change settings for interfaces on Ethernet adapters.

Usage of ethtool is as follows, where <interface> is the name of an interface on the X4 series adapter:

  • To identify the current settings for an interface:
    ethtool <interface>
  • To configure settings for an interface:
    ethtool <-option> <interface>

    Root permissions are required to configure interfaces.
