Important Considerations
You can use this command to configure the same setting on multiple
ports simultaneously. When you specify multiple port numbers, the
system prompts you to choose the setting and then applies it to all of
the ports.
When you
enable
portMode information for 10/100BASE-TX ports and your requested
flowControl information for 1000BASE-SX ports. When you
autonegotiation, the system recognizes the requested portMode
values for ports that have portMode options and the requested
flowControl values for 1000BASE-SX ports. (100BASE-FX ports and
backplane ports do not support autonegotiation.)
Therefore, it is extremely important that you understand how to
implement flowcontrol and portMode in your network. See the
Implementation Guide for your system for more information.
