Thanks to Casper Dik and AYY Choi
The late collision message occured because the sun was not set to full duplex
in /etc/system
set hme:hme_adv_autoneg_cap=0
set hme:hme_adv_100hdx_cap=0
set hme:hme_adv_100fdx_cap=1
or from the command line or /etc/rc2.d script
In case you have multiple instances, you need to select the specific
hme instance first, e.g., use the following to select hme1:
ndd -set /dev/hme instance 1

ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_xmit_hiwat 65535
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_recv_hiwat 65535
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_cwnd_max 65534

ndd -set /dev/hme adv_10fdx_cap 0
