4 View the /etc/modprobe.conf file by typing:
more /etc/modprobe.conf
Several lines appear with the format alias eth x driver-module , where x is the Ethernet
interface number and
driver-module is the module you determined in step 3.
For example, the line
alias eth1 tg3 appears if your operating system assigned eth1 to
a Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit NIC.
5 Determine which Ethernet interfaces (eth x ) are assigned to the type of Gigabit NIC that is connected
to the Gigabit switch.
If only one entry exists in
/etc/modprobe.conf for your driver module type, then you have successfully
identified the private network interface.
6 If you have more than one of the same type of NIC in your system, experiment to determine which
Ethernet interface is assigned to each NIC.
For each Ethernet interface, follow the steps in "Configuring the Private Network Using Bonding" for
the correct driver module until you have identified the correct Ethernet interface.
