Figure 2-17. The Ethernet Configuration Window

From this window you can manually set the operational mode of the port, or —
for 100Base-TX and 1000Base-SX/LX/CX interfaces — set the port to Auto
Negotiate so that the appropriate operational mode can be determined
automatically. The mode you set will determine the port’s speed, duplex mode,
and flow control.

TIP

If you select the Configuration option available for a standard Ethernet or FDDI interface,
or for a Fast Ethernet port on a first generation module, an entirely different window
displays; see

Configuring Standard Ethernet and FDDI Ports

,

page 2-30

, or

Configuring Fast Ethernet Ports on First Generation Modules

,

page 2-31

, for

information on configuring these ports.
