About Auto-negotiation
Auto-negotiation is an IEEE 802.3 procedure of
negotiating the highest data flow capability

their links partner (some other device). The data
flow information, to be negotiated, consists of the
data speed (10Mbps or 100Mbps) and data transfer
(half-duplex or full-duplex communication). The
physical process of auto-negotiation requires only a

communications capability between the
devices.
