Installation and Configuration
Manual Speed and Duplex Mode Configuration
Chapter 2
34
If you want the Duplex Mode setting to be effective in all subsequent reboots, you must
enter the information in the following file:
/etc/rc.config.d/hpbtlanconf
Manually configuring the speed or duplex setting of a switch port on some switches may
disable that switch port from doing autonegotiation. Verify that both the card and the
switch port are operating according to the Supported Configurations shown in chapter 1.
If you use manual configuration to change the card to a different speed and duplex mode,
you may need to turn autonegotiation on before the manual setting takes place.
NOTE Mismatches between the speed, autonegotiation, or duplex mode of the card and switch
will cause incorrect operation.
