User Guidelines
The command enables both send and receive sides of a link to disable some
functionality for power savings when lightly loaded. The transition to Low
Power Idle mode does not change the link status. Frames in transit are not
dropped or corrupted in transition to and from Low Power Idle mode.
On combo ports, EEE mode can be enabled even if the port is using the fiber
interface. If enabled, EEE mode is only active when the copper interface is
active.
This command is available in Ethernet interface configuration mode. Cable
diagnostics (show copper-ports commands) may give misleading results if
green mode is enabled on the port. Disable green mode prior to running any
cable diagnostics. EEE mode is supported on N1100-
ON/N1500/N2000/N2100-ON/N3000-ON/N3100-ON 1G copper interfaces.
green-mode eee { tx-idle-time | tx-wake-time}
Use the green-mode eee {tx-idle-time | tx_wake-time} command in
Interface Configuration mode to control the transmit idle and wake time
parameters on an interface.
