Note:
If your platform supports channelization for 40 Gbps ports and the port is channelized,
you must also specify the sub-port in the format slot/port/sub-port.
2. Enable Autonegotiation:
auto-negotiate [port {slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]]
[,...]}] enable
3. Disable Autonegotiation:
no auto-negotiate [port {slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]]
[,...]}] enable
Example
Switch:>enable
Switch:1#configure terminal
Switch:1(config)#interface gigabitethernet 4/2

Variable definitions
Use the data in following table to use the auto-negotiate command.
Variable
Value
{slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]][,...]} Specifies the port or ports that you want to configure.
enable Enables Autonegotiation for the port or other ports of
the module.
The default is enabled for VSP 8000 Series but
disabled for VSP 7200 Series.
Note:
The 10 GigabitEthernet fiber-based ports can
operate at either 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) or
10 Gbps, dependent upon the capabilities
optical transceiver that you install.
This presents an ambiguity with respect to the
autonegotiation settings of the port, while 1
Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports require
autonegotiation; autonegotiation is not defined
and is non-existent for 10 GbE ports.
For a 10GbE fiber-based port, you have the
capability to swap back-and-forth between 1
