Configuring Interface Characteristics
The switch operates with 100BASE-x (where -x is -BX, -FX-FE, -LX) SFP modules as follows:
•
•
•
The switch does not have this behavior with 100BASE-FX-GE SFP modules.
Configuring Interface Speed and Duplex Mode
Ethernet interfaces on the switch operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s and in either full- or half-duplex mode.
In full-duplex mode, two stations can send and receive traffic at the same time. Normally, 10-Mb/s ports
operate in half-duplex mode, which means that stations can either receive or send traffic.
Switch models include combinations of Fast Ethernet (10/100-Mb/s) ports, Gigabit Ethernet
(10/100/1000-Mb/s) ports, and small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module slots supporting SFP
modules.
These sections describe how to configure the interface speed and duplex mode:

Speed and Duplex Configuration Guidelines
When configuring an interface speed and duplex mode, note these guidelines:

OL-13018-01
When the 100BASE -x SFP module is inserted into the module slot and there is no link on the RJ-45
side, the switch disables the RJ-45 interface and selects the SFP module interface. This is the
behavior even if there is no cable connected and if there is no link on the SFP module side.
When the 100BASE-x SFP module is inserted and there is a link on the RJ-45 side, the switch
continues with that link. If the link goes down, the switch disables the RJ-45 side and selects the
SFP module interface.
When the 100BASE-x SFP module is removed, the switch again dynamically selects the type
(auto-select) and re-enables the RJ-45 side.

Fast Ethernet (10/100-Mb/s) ports support all speed and duplex options.
Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000-Mb/s) ports support all speed options and all duplex options (auto,
half, and full). However, Gigabit Ethernet ports operating at 1000 Mb/s do not support half-duplex
mode.
For SFP module ports, the speed and duplex CLI options change depending on the SFP module type:
The 1000BASE-x (where -x is -BX, -CWDM, -LX, -SX, and -ZX) SFP module ports support
–
the nonegotiate keyword in the speed interface configuration command. Duplex options are not
supported.
The 1000BASE-T SFP module ports support the same speed and duplex options as the
–
10/100/1000-Mb/s ports.
The 100BASE-x (where -x is -BX, -CWDM, -LX, -SX, and -ZX) SFP module ports support only
–
100 Mb/s. These modules support full- and half- duplex options but do not support
autonegotiation.
For information about which SFP modules are supported on your switch, see the product
release notes.
If both ends of the line support autonegotiation, we highly recommend the default setting of auto
negotiation.
