Iain, go into the /systest/ssr_util directory - run the jumper program and
select the appropriate keys to get to the configurations for the ethernet
cards.  It doesnt matter if you select a-add-eth or a-net-eth.  Make sure
the jumpers are set.  If you are using thicknet, then set the big blue
jumper to DIX, if you are using thinnet, set it to BNC.  If you are using
sr10.+, then the sfw is all there for tcp.  If you are using 9.7, then
you will need optional sfw - either bsd4.2 tcp or tcp v3.1 ( Aegis ).
If you need more info - email me.
