documentation that shipped with your switch:
■
adv-1000fdx-cap
■
adv-1000hdx-cap
■
adv-ampause-cap
■
adv-pause-cap
2. Set the
adv-autoneg-cap

Note –
See Chapter 4 for the default values of these parameters and for instructions
on how to set these parameters.
Failure to Configure GigaSwift Ethernet Instance
If your machine fails to configure a GigaSwift Ethernet instance, yet
prtconf
indicates the adapter is present, the problem might be due to residue adapter
instances in the
path_to_inst
file.
To solve this problem, open the
path_to_inst
file for editing and remove the lines
containing
ce
device path.
Reboot the machine and try to configure it again.
