| I am trying to bring an Ethernet interface up using a loopback plug. Pin 1 to 3 – 2 to 6. I am able to get a link light on the AUI adapter, however, the interface remains in Up/down state.
I use the same plug on my NIC for my PC and am successful in pinging the device. What is the difference between a NIC and an Ethernet interface on a router? I am familiar with the ‘no keepalive’ interface command, but am trying to avoid this.
How can I make a Ethernet loopback adapter that will pass pings? |
