Usage
Information
This command is found on the 10/100/1000/10000 Base-T Ethernet interfaces.
When you enable auto, the system performs an automatic discovery to determine the optics installed
and configure the appropriate speed.
When you configure a speed for the 10/100/1000/10000 interface, confirm the negotiation auto
command setting. Both sides of the link must have auto-negotiation either enabled or disabled. For speed
settings of 1000 or auto, the software sets the link to auto-negotiation and you cannot change that
setting.
NOTE: Starting with Dell Networking OS version 7.8.1.0, when you use a copper SFP2 module with
catalog number GP-SFP2-1T in the S25P model of the S-Series, you can manually set its speed with
