History
Version 9.2(0.0) Introduced on the M I/O Aggregator. This command is
supported in Programmable-Mux (PMUX) mode only.
Version 8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
The no negotiation auto command is only available if you first manually set
the speed of a port to
10Mbits or 100Mbits.
The negotiation auto command provides a mode option for configuring an
individual port to forced-master/forced slave after you enable auto-negotiation.
If you do not use the mode option, the default setting is slave. If you do not
configure forced-master or forced-slave on a port, the port negotiates to either a
master or a slave state. Port status is one of the following:
• Forced-master
• Force-slave
• Master
