COMMAND MODE
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
COMMAND USAGE
◆ The 1000BASE-T standard does not support forced mode. Auto-
negotiation should always be used to establish a connection over any
1000BASE-T port or trunk. If not used, the success of the link process
cannot be guaranteed when connecting to other types of switches.
However, this switch does provide a means of safely forcing a link to
operate at 1000 Mbps, full-duplex using the giga-phy-mode command.
◆ To force operation to the speed and duplex mode specified in a speed-
duplex command, use the no negotiation command to disable auto-
negotiation on the selected interface.
◆ When using the negotiation command to enable auto-negotiation, the
optimal settings will be determined by the capabilities command. To set
the speed/duplex mode under auto-negotiation, the required mode
must be specified in the capabilities list for an interface.
EXAMPLE
The following example configures port 5 to 100 Mbps, half-duplex
operation.
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#speed-duplex 100half
Console(config-if)#no negotiation
Console(config-if)#
