184 Asanté IntraCore 36000 Series
16.11 capabilities
This command advertises the port capabilities of a given interface during autonegotiation. Use the no form
with parameters to remove an advertised capability, or the no form without parameters to restore the default
values.
Syntax Description
[no] capabilities {1000full | 100full | 100half | 10full | 10half |
flowcontrol | symmetric}
1000full Supports 1000 Mbps full-duplex operation
100full Supports 100 Mbps full-duplex operation
100half Supports 100 Mbps half-duplex operation
10full Supports 10 Mbps full-duplex operation
10half Supports 10 Mbps half-duplex operation
flowcontrol Supports flow control
symmetric (Gigabit
only)
When specified, the port transmits and receives pause frames; when not
specified, the port will auto-negotiate to determine the sender and receiver for
asymmetric pause frames. (The current switch ASIC only supports symmetric
pause frames.)
Default
100BASE-TX: 10half, 10full, 100half, 100full
1000BASE-T: 10half, 10full, 100half, 100full, 1000full
1000BASE-SX/LX/LH: 1000full
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Usage Guidelines
When auto-negotiation is enabled with the negotiation command, the switch will negotiate the best settings
for a link based on the capabilities command. When auto-negotiation is disabled, you must manually specify
the link attributes with the speed-duplex and flowcontrol commands.
Example
The following example configures Ethernet port 5 capabilities to 100half, 100full and flow control.
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#capabilities 100half
Console(config-if)#capabilities 100full
Console(config-if)#capabilities flowcontrol
Console(config-if)#
