elink

elink <interface> -o [[auto] | [10 | 100 | auto_speed ] | [half | full | auto_duplex]
The elink command configures the speed and/or duplex of the Ethernet interface. The default
setting is auto for auto negotiation. With auto negotiation, both the speed and duplex are
configured based upon what the link is connected to. It is also possible to configure the duplex,
say half and full, and specify auto_speed so that only the speed is auto negotiated. Similarly for
auto_duplex.
