assign names according to the port application, e.g. financial as the name of 1/1-2 ports
which is used by financial department, engineering as the name of 1/9 ports which
belongs to the engineering department, while the name of 1/12 ports is assigned with
Server, which is because they connected to the server. In this way the port distribution
state will be brought to the table.
Example: Specify the name of 1/1-2 port as financial.
Switch(config)#interface ethernet 1/1-2
Switch(Config-If-Port-Range)#name financial
3.1.9 negotiation
Command: negotiation {on|off}
Function: Enables/Disables the auto-negotiation function of a 1000Base-FX port.
Parameters: on: enables the auto-negotiation; off: disable the auto-negotiation.
Command mode: Port configuration Mode.
Default: Auto-negotiation is enabled by default.
Usage Guide: This command applies to 1000Base-FX interface only. The negotiation
command is not available for 1000Base-TX or 100Base-TX interface. For combo port, this
command applies to the 1000Base-FX port only but has no effect on the 1000Base-TX
port. To change the negotiation mode, speed and duplex mode of 1000Base-TX port, use
speed-duplex command instead.
Example: Port 21 of Switch1 is connected to port 21 of Switch2, the following will disable
the negotiation for both ports.
Switch1(config)#interface ethernet1/21
Switch1(Config-If-Ethernet1/21)#negotiation off
Switch2(config)#interface ethernet1/21
Switch2(Config-If-Ethernet1/21)#negotiation off
