Hi,
What's the correct way to disble TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload) in RHEL5?
I have tried adding those options in ifcfg-ethX configuration file:
# grep ETHTOOL /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
ETHTOOL_OPTS="tso off"
And also with:
ETHTOOL_OPTS="-K eth0 tso off"
But when restating the server TSO is enabled:
# ethtool -k eth0
tcp segmentation offload: on
As a temporary solution, I'm executing this command in a start script:
/sbin/ethtool -K eth0 tso off
But I think it can be configured in network configuration files, any
idea to solve this? thanks!!
Regards,
