Configuring Autonegotiation
By default, autonegotiation is enabled all Gigabit Ethernet interface. You can enable or disable
autonegotiation for a specified Gigabit Ethernet interface. When autonegotiation is enabled, the port
automatically detects the speed or pause method, and duplex of incoming signals based on the link
partner. You can also detect link up conditions using the autonegotiation feature.
To configure autonegotiation, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 2/2
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# switchport auto-negotiate
switch(config-if)# no switchport
auto-negotiate
Configuring the MTU Frame Size
You can configure the interfaces on a switch to transfer large (or jumbo) frames on a port. The default
IP maximum transmission unit (MTU) frame size is 1500 bytes for all Ethernet ports. By configuring
jumbo frames on a port, the MTU size can be increased up to 9000 bytes.
The minimum MTU size is 576 bytes.
