Operational Mode Parameters

The following parameters determine the transmit and receive speed and duplex. describes the operational mode parameters and their default values.

Operational Mode Parameters

Description

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware 0 = Forced mode

1 = Autonegotiation (default)

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware

0= Not 1000 Mbit/sec full-duplex capable

1= 1000 Mbit/sec full-duplex capable (default)

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware

0= Not 1000 Mbit/sec half-duplex capable

1= 1000 Mbit/sec half-duplex capable (default)

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware

0= Not 100 Mbit/sec full-duplex capable

1= 100 Mbit/sec full-duplex capable (default)

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware

0= Not 100 Mbit/sec half-duplex capable

1= 100 Mbit/sec half-duplex capable (default)

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware

0= Not 10 Mbit/sec full-duplex capable

1= 10 Mbit/sec full-duplex capable (default)

Local interface capability advertised by the hardware

0= Not 10 Mbit/sec half-duplex capable

1= 10 Mbit/sec half-duplex capable (default)

Note If a parameter’s initial setting is 0, it cannot be changed. If you try to change it, it will revert back to 0.

If all these parameters are set to 1, autonegotiation will use the highest speed possible. If all these parameters are set to 0, you will receive the following error message:

NOTICE: Last setting will leave ce1 with no link capabilities.

WARNING: ce1: Restoring previous setting.
