Description
The configured state of the Auto-Negotiation
protocol between two stations. When enabled,
Auto-Negotiation detects the highest common
denominator for communication between
endstations, and sets both to the same highest
common setting. It also delivers remote link
status.
For 10BaseT and 100BaseT ports,
Auto-Negotiation determines the speed and
Duplex Mode of communication between the
endstations. For Gigabit ports, Auto-
Negotiation determines the Flow Control
setting of the ports.
For more information, refer to Auto-Negotiation
in The Reference Guide.
