Forcing Port Renegotiation

Port renegotiation prompts a port operating in Auto-Negotiation to
renegotiate its speed and duplex mode with its end node. This option is
useful if you believe that a port and end node are not operating at the
same speed and duplex mode.

To force port renegotiation, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 1 to select Port Configuration.

The Port Configuration menu is shown in Figure 25 on page 112.

2. From the Port Configuration menu, type 1 to select Port Configuration.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter port-list ->

3. Enter the number of the port you want to reset. To reset a range of

ports, enter the first and last ports of the range, separated by a dash
(for example, 4-8). You cannot specify nonconsecutive ports (for
example, 5,7,9)

The Port Configuration menu is shown in Figure 26 on page 113.

4. From the Port Configuration menu, type F to select Force

Renegotiation.
