Hi Malc, the port and NIC seems to be ok as the "1000 Mbps full duplex link up" message shows. Is the JS server is in the same VLAN as the clients? I think so...
Hi Malc, How's it going? ... correct ... no ... There's some sort of connectivity issue- at this stage there's no routing or anything required and the link is...
Hi Ralf, yes they are on the same vlan, although I have no way of checking the switch ports, so I'm taking our network people's word for it. I want to make...
