Ethernet Hardware

The ethernet hardware has to be compatible with the link layer from Acontis. To check the installed network hardware use this command:
lspci | grep Ethernet
This lists all ethernet hardware, which could look like this:
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection I218-LM (rev 04)
00:19.0 is the ID of the ethernet controller. List all information with:
sudo lspci -v
you get something like:

00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection I218-LM (rev 04)
	DeviceName:  Onboard LAN
	Subsystem: Dell Ethernet Connection I218-LM
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 50
