The dashboard in Truenas Core / Interface has media Subtype displayed.

Where is this in Scale?

I have 2 Dell T320, one on core and one on scale. The one on scale is stuck at 100Mb/s while the one on core is at 1000Mb/s.

The new T320 unit is on scale. I expect it has the same HW as the first, but who knows with this old hw.
Any suggestions for how to query the network hw differences from the user interface or console?

That information is showing up on my system here. Is it a size issue, perhaps it's getting cut off as part of that (+2) text on your screenshot? What happens if you make your browser window bigger?

I installed core to debug the issue. Turns out the 2nd T320 was fine, my problem was with the link between 2 switches.

I will reinstall scale, do as you suggest, and continue to play arround with scale.

Odd #1: First installed scale, then core, then scale. The last install booted into GRUB and did not launch scale. Messed around a little but not obvious how to get grub to boot scale. So installed scale again. This time GRUB boot scale.

Odd #2: DHCP assigned a new IP address to this box even though lease time is 24 hrs.

Deficiency #1: Did not look too carefully at IP address on the console, typed # for change network configuration, it was not obvious how to change the DHCP to a fixed IP in the console.

Truenas core displays the installed network devices and offers a quit. So much easier to set a fixed ip in core.

So figured I would go to the web to make the change for scale, but the IP address was nowhere to be seen on the console and no quit options to display the ip address.

Odd #3: no matter the size of the browser window, Media Subtype is now displayed.
