In the previous example, several ports display Auto in the Speed field. In the following example, the speed of port 1/1 is set to
100Mb and then its auto-negotiation is disabled.

Set Auto-Negotiation Options
The negotiation auto command provides a mode option for configuring an individual port to forced master/ forced slave
once auto-negotiation is enabled.
CAUTION:
Ensure that only one end of the node is configured as forced-master and the other is configured as
forced-slave. If both are configured the same (that is, both as forced-master or both as forced-slave), the show
interface command flaps between an auto-neg-error and forced-master/slave states.
Example of the negotiation auto Command
DellEMC(conf)# int gigabitethernet 1/1
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/1)#neg auto
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/1-autoneg)# ?
end Exit from configuration mode
exit Exit from autoneg configuration mode
mode Specify autoneg mode
no Negate a command or set its defaults
show Show autoneg configuration information
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/1-autoneg)#mode ?
forced-master Force port to master mode
forced-slave Force port to slave mode
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/1-autoneg)#
For details about the speed, , and negotiation auto commands, refer to the Interfaces chapter of the Dell EMC
Networking OS Command Reference Guide.
NOTE:
While using 10GBASE-T, auto-negotiation is enabled on the external PHY by default, and auto-negotiation should be
enabled on the peer for the link to come up.
