12.1.17 speed
Interface Config commands
Use this command to specify the speed of a fast-ethernet (10/100) or a gigabit-ethernet port (10/100/1000).
Syntax
speed(10|100|1000|auto)
Parameters
Usage Guidelines
Set the interface speed to auto to detect and use the fastest speed avaiable. The speed detection is based
on the connected network hardware.
Example
RFS7000(config-if)#speed auto
RFS7000(config-if)#
RFS7000(config-if)#speed 1000
RFS7000(config-if)#
RFS7000(config-if)#show interfaces ge2

10 Forces 10 Mbps operation. The port runs at 10 Mbps.
100 Forces 100 Mbps operation.The port runs at 100 Mbps.
1000 Forces 1000 Mbps operation.The port runs at 1000 Mbps.
auto Enables AUTO speed configuration.The port automatically detects the speed it
should run based on the port at the other end of the link.
