Viewing Configurations for 10/100 Ethernet Modules
The 10/100vc command allows you to view the current status of newer Ethernet modules (see
Kodiak Ethernet Modules on page 15-3). These modules support 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps
Ethernet. Ethernet 10/100 ports (e.g., ESX-K-100C-32) can auto-sense the connection speed of
the attached device.
Entering
10/100vc displays information similar to the following:
10/100 Configure Values for all slots
DETECTED SET

Intf negotiate Speed Mode Speed Mode
----- ----------- ------ -------- ------ -------
5/ 1 enabled ? ? auto half-d
5/ 2 enabled 10 HALF-D auto half-d

5/ 8 enabled ? ? auto half-d
Slot/Intf.
The slot and port number (Intf) where this Ethernet port is located.
Auto-negotiate. Indicates whether auto-negotiation is enabled on a 10/100 port. If enabled, the
port will automatically sense whether the attached device operates at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps
and adjust accordingly. If disabled, the port does not automatically detect the connection
speed and instead uses the line speed you configure through the 10/100cfg command. You
enable or disable auto-negotiation through 10/100cfg. A value of n/a in this column means the
port does not support auto-sensing and the line speed defaults to either 10 or 100 Mbps.
The next set of columns are divided into
DETECTED and SET. The columns under DETECTED
are the current operational Line Speed or Duplex Mode. The columns under SET are the config-
ured values; these configured values will either be defaults or the values configured through
10/100cfg.
Line Speed. Indicates the speed (in Mbps) at which the port is currently operating (DETECTED)
or configured to operate (SET).
DETECTED values will be 10 (Mbps), 100 (Mbps), or a question mark (?). A question mark
(?) in this column indicates the port is not connected to a device.
SET values will be
auto, 10 (Mbps,) or 100 (Mbps). The auto setting means auto-sensing is
enabled and the Line Speed will equal the speed for which the attached device is config-
ured.
Duplex Mode. Indicates whether the port is operating (DETECTED) or configured (SET) for half-
or full-duplex mode.
DETECTED values will be half-duplex (HALF-D), full-duplex (FULL-D), or a question mark
(
?). A question mark (?) in this column indicates the port is not connected to a device.
SET values will be auto-sensing (auto), half-duplex (half-d), or full-duplex (full-d). If this
value is auto, then the switch automatically sets the duplex mode to the network device’s
setting. If this value is half-d, then the port will always run in half-duplex mode. If this
value is full-d, then the port will always run in full-duplex mode. You configure the
duplex mode through the 10/100cfg command. Note that you can only configure a 10/100
port for full-duplex if you disable auto-sensing.
