set-speed-sel

set-port-sel <port-number> {asense10010}

This command specifies if port-number will negotiate a 10Mbps or 100Mbps connection, or it will autosense. If the switch is having difficulty auto-sensing the wire speed, use this command to set the correct value.

Note

If the port’s link partner is in Full Duplex mode and not in ASENSE (or auto-negotiation) mode, ASENSE cannot be selected as the line speed of the port.

set-port-state

This command can be used to enable or disable a port when the Spanning Tree algorithm is not running. When Spanning Tree is running, set-prt-enb should be used instead.

set-port-state < port-number> {enabledisable}

set-aggr-mode

This command sets the device mode: aggressive or relax backoff algorithm.

SYS_console>set-aggr-mode

[arg #0] enter either {enable disable}

SYS_console>

The AT-8116 implements the truncated exponential backoff algorithm defined by the 802.3 standard. The set-aggr-mode command controls the number of consecutive retransmit trials (necessitated by collisions) before restarting the backoff algorithm. In aggressive mode the AT-8116 restarts the backoff algorithm after 4 consecutive transmit trials instead of 16. This results in the switch being more aggressive in accessing the media following a collision.
