Chapter 11 Configuring Interface Characteristics Configuring Ethernet Interfaces • If both ends of the line support autonegotiation, we highly recommend the default setting of autonegotiation. • When connecting an interface to a 100BASE-T device that does not autonegotiate, set the speed to a non-auto value (for example, nonegotiate) and set the duplex mode to full or half to match the device. The speed value and duplex mode must be explicitly set. • When connecting an interface to a Gigabit Ethernet device that does not autonegotiate, disable autonegotiation on the switch and set the duplex and flow control parameters to be compatible with the remote device. • 100BASE-FX ports operate only at 100 Mbps and in full-duplex mode. • 1000BASE-SX ports operate only at 1000 Mbps and in full-duplex mode. • 1000BASE-T GBICs operate only at 1000Mbps and in full-duplex mode. • You can configure the 10/100/1000 ports on the Catalyst 2950T-24 and Catalyst 2950T-48-SI switches to autonegotiate the duplex mode by using the duplex auto interface configuration command, or you can manually set the duplex mode to full by using the duplex full command. The 10/100/1000 ports on the Catalyst 2950T-24 switches operate only in full-duplex mode. The ports do not support the half keyword in the duplex command. The 10/100/1000 ports on the Catalyst 2950T-48-SI switches support the half keyword when the interface speed is 10 or 100 Mbps. • 10/100/1000 ports on the Catalyst 2950 LRE or the Catalyst 2955T-12 switch can operate at 10 or 100 Mbps in either half- or full-duplex mode. The ports can operate at 1000 Mbps only in full-duplex mode. • Fiber-optic SFP-module ports on the Catalyst 2950 LRE switch operate only at 1000 Mbps in full-duplex mode. • GigaStack-to-GigaStack cascade connections operate in half-duplex mode, and GigaStackto-GigaStack point-to-point connections operate in full-duplex mode. • When Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is enabled and a port is reconfigured, the switch can take up to 30 seconds to check for loops. The port LED is amber while STP reconfigures. • On the 10/100/1000 ports on an LRE switch, use the speed and duplex interface commands. You cannot configure the speed and duplex settings on the fiber-optic SFP-module ports. For example, if you enter the speed 100 and the duplex half interface configuration commands and the fiber-optic SFP-module port is active, the switch attempts to autonegotiate the speed and duplex settings as 1000 Mbps with full autonegotiation. If you enter the speed 100 and the duplex half interface configuration commands and the 10/100/1000 port is active, the switch advertises the speed and duplex settings as 10 Mbps and half duplex. • On the LRE ports on an LRE switch, use the local speed and the local duplex interface configuration commands. Caution Changing the interface speed and duplex mode configuration might shut down and re-enable the interface during the reconfiguration. 78-11380-10 Catalyst 2950 and Catalyst 2955 Switch Software Configuration Guide 11-11
