Information
This command is not applicable for 10–Gigabit and 40–Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
The fec enable command enables Clause 91 error correction on 100G interfaces.
You can enable or disable FEC and auto negotiation irrespective of each other on 100G interfaces.
For 100G interfaces, CR4 auto-negotiation is enabled based on the media type. Autonegotiation is enabled
on DAC cables by default.
For 25–Gigabit and 50–Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, There is no support for CL73-AN (auto negotiation),
CL72-LT (link training), and CL74-FEC (BaseR-FEC or firecode-FEC).
