Reporting the Link Partner Capabilities

TABLE 4-11

describes the read-only link partner capabilities.

If the link partner is not capable of autonegotiation (when

lp_cap_autoneg

is 0),

the remaining information described in

TABLE 4-11

is not relevant and the parameter

value = 0.

If the link partner is capable of autonegotiation (when

lp_cap_autoneg

is 1), then

the speed and mode information is displayed when you use autonegotiation and the
link partner capabilities.
