auto-negotiation.
Syntax Description
[no] negotiation
Default
Enabled
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Usage Guidelines
When auto-negotiation is enabled, the switch negotiates 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.
If autonegotiation is disabled, auto-MDI/MDI-X pin signal configuration is also disabled for the RJ-45 ports.
Example
The following example configures port 11 to use autonegotiation.
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/11
Console(config-if)#negotiation
Console(config-if)#
