Connecting to the Copper Ports

Copper ports [0:7] are capable of working 10/100/1000 Mbps.
The router copper ports configure themselves to operate at the speed of attached devices. If the attached
Note
ports do not support autonegotiation, you can explicitly set the speed and duplex parameters. Connecting
devices that do not autonegotiate or that have their speed and duplex parameters manually set can reduce
performance or result in no linkage.
