Configurable Operational Mode Parameters

The parameters in TABLE 4-3determine the transmit and receive speed and duplexing capability. TABLE 4-3also describes the operational mode parameters and their default values

TABLE 4-3Operational Mode Parameters

Parameter

Description

 

 

AutoNegAdvertised

A bitmap for the speeds advertised during autonegotiation.

 

The adapter only autonegotiates to a speed that is

 

advertised. For example: AutoNegAdvertised = 4 causes

 

an adapter to only advertise autonegotiation at 100 Mbps,

 

full duplex. No other link speeds are accepted or given

 

during autonegotiation. AutoNegAdvertised = 47

 

advertises all speeds available, This is the same as using

 

the default setting of 0.

 

0

- 255 Allowed values.

 

4

= AutoNegAdvertised = 100 Mpbs.

 

0

= AutoNegAdvertised = 47 (default).

ForceSpeedDuplex

Specify the speed and duplex mode for each instance.

 

If you set ForceSpeedDuplex = 7,4, the e1000g0 is set to

 

autonegotiate and e1000g1 is set to 100 Mbps, full

 

duplex. Note that fiber optic ethernet adapters ignore this

 

setting.

 

Allowed values are:

 

1

= 10 Megabits per second, Half Duplex.

 

2

= 10 Megabits per second, Full Duplex.

 

3

= 100 Megabits per second, Half Duplex.

 

4

= 100 Megabits per second, Full Duplex.

 

7

= autonegotiate speed and duplex. (Default).
