The following features are found in the Ethernet ports of the Switch 4500
10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing. They can
■
operate in half-duplex, full-duplex and auto-negotiation modes. They can
negotiate with other network devices to determine the operating mode and
speed. Thus the appropriate operating mode and speed is automatically
configured and the system configuration and management is greatly
streamlined.
Gigabit SFP ports operate in 1000Mbps full duplex mode. The duplex mode
■
can be set to full (full-duplex) and auto (auto-negotiation) and its speed can
be set to 1000 (1000Mbps) and auto (auto-negotiation).
The configuration of these Ethernet ports is fundamentally the same and is
described in the following sections.
