speed (for 1000/10000/auto interfaces)
Set the speed for 1000/10000 Base-T Ethernet interfaces. Set both sides of a link to the same speed (1000/10000) or to auto or the link
may not come up.
Syntax
speed {1000 | 10000 | auto}
To return to the default setting, use the no speed {1000 | 10000 | auto} command.
Parameters
1000 Enter the keyword 1000 to set the interface’s speed to 1000 Mb/s.
10000 Enter the keyword 10000 to set the interface’s speed to 10000 Mb/s. Auto-negotiation is
enabled. For more information, refer to negotiation auto.
auto Enter the keyword auto to set the interface to auto-negotiate its speed. Auto-
negotiation is enabled. For more information, refer to negotiation auto.

Command History
Version Description
9.10(0.0) Added support for fanned–out 1 Gigabit SFP port.
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage Information
This command is found on the 1000/10000 Base-T Ethernet interfaces.
When you enable auto, the system performs an automatic discovery to determine the optics installed and
congure the appropriate speed.
When you congure a speed for the 1000/10000 interface, conrm the negotiation auto command setting. Both
sides of the link must have auto-negotiation either enabled or disabled. For speed settings of 1000 or auto, the
software sets the link to auto-negotiation and you cannot change that setting.
If you use an active optical cable (AOC), you can convert the QSFP+ port to a 10 Gigabit SFP+ port or 1 Gigabit
SFP port. You can use the speed command to enable the required speed.
