    12 Port speed and duplex mode The Avaya Virtual Services Platform 9000 Ethernet modules support various data rates; these include 10 Mbit/s, 100 Mbit/s, 1000 Mbit/s, and 10 Gbit/s. Some modules support several data rates and use Autonegotiation to determine the appropriate data rate.
  • Page 10 Although all Virtual Services Platform 9000 1000BASE-T ports support Autonegotiation,there can be situations where Autonegotiation does not function properly,and a link remains down. If this situation occurs, Avaya recommends that you disable Autonegotiation and configure matching speed andduplex on both sides of the link (usually 10 Mbit/s and full-duplex).This Configuration —...
  • Page 11 Because RFI is part of the Autonegotiation function, if you disable Autonegotiation, you automatically disable RFI. Therefore, Avaya recommends that you enable Autonegotiation on Gigabit Ethernet links in all cases where the devices on both ends of a fiber link support Autonegotiation.

  • Page 12: Ethernet Module Features

    MLT and Link Aggregation Control Protocol groups port speed Avaya recommends that all ports that belong to the same MLT group or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) group use the same port speed, for example, 1 Gbit/s, even if you use Autonegotiation.

  • Page 17 Ethernet module features Because you can change SFPs, inconsistencies can arise in the configuration file if you swap SFPs of different speeds. The port operates correctly after you change the SFP, but the configuration file can contain inappropriate Autonegotiation settings because of prior CLI actions.
