To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Assign Ethernet interfaces to the
manual port group

group-member
interface-list

Required
If you use the group-member interface-type

interface-start-number to interface-type

interface-end-number command to add multiple
ports in batch to the specified port group, make

sure that all these ports are of the same type

and on the same interface card, and the

interface-end-number argument must be greater
than the interface-start-number argument.

Configure jumbo frame support

jumboframe enable
[ value ]

Required
By default, the switch allows jumbo frames

within 9216 bytes to pass through Ethernet

interfaces.
If you set the value argument multiple times, the
latest configuration takes effect.

Setting speed options for auto negotiation on an Ethernet

interface

Speed auto negotiation enables an Ethernet interface to negotiate with its peer for the highest speed that

both ends support by default. You can narrow down the speed option list for negotiation.

As shown in

, all ports on Switch A are operating in speed auto negotiation mode, with the

highest speed of 1000 Mbps. If the transmission rate of each server in the server cluster is 1000 Mbps,

their total transmission rate will exceed the capability of port GigabitEthernet 1/0/4, the port providing

access to the Internet for the servers.
To avoid congestion on GigabitEthernet 1/0/4, set 100 Mbps as the only option available for speed

negotiation on port GigabitEthernet 1/0/1, GigabitEthernet 1/0/2, and GigabitEthernet 1/0/3. As a

result, the transmission rate on each port connected to a server is limited to 100 Mbps.
Follow these steps to set speed options for auto negotiation on an Ethernet interface:
