oSyntax: FORCEDUPLEX=n Where n= 0–auto-negotiate 1–half-duplex 2–full-duplex

NOTE: To set the adapter to half- or full-duplex, you must set the SPEED parameter to either 10 or 100.

oDefault: auto-negotiation

oExamples:

100 Mbps full-duplex: FORCEDUPLEX=2 SPEED=100

10 Mbps full-duplex: FORCEDUPLEX=2 SPEED=10

•SPEED. If no speed setting is specified, the adapter auto-negotiates the speed with the hub/switch, either 10 or 100 Mbps. If the adapter and hub/switch are unable to auto-negotiate, the adapter defaults to 10 Mbps.

oSyntax: SPEED=n (n = 10 or 100)

oDefault: The adapter automatically senses speed.
