Usage Guidelines
• You can only configure one slot at a time. Repeat the command to configure additional slots.
• If auto negotiation is disabled, then automatic crossover will also be disabled. See the interfaces
autoneg command on page 20-7 for more information.
• You cannot configure crossover settings on fiber ports. These ports use the MDI standard.
• Configuration changes made with the interfaces crossover command on combo ports configured as
either forced copper or preferred copper will only be made on the copper RJ-45 ports and not to the
SFP fiber port. See the interfaces hybrid crossover command for more information.
