Enable Auto-Negotiation (Not available on IQS-8510G)
The Auto-Negotiation should be selected if the remote connected port
is also set to Auto-Negotiation, otherwise it should be deactivated.
When selected, the Ethernet and Fibre Channel Application will
indicate to the remote port which parameters to use. Auto-Negotiation
is not available with the optical 100Mbps and 10Gbps interfaces. The
Auto-Negotiation check box is selected by default.
When the Enable Auto-Negotiation check box is cleared, the port
Speed, Duplex and Flow Control can be set to specific values. Those
values are applied immediately to the port.
When the Auto-Negotiation check box is selected, the port Speed,
Duplex and Flow Control can be set. Those settings are not applied
immediately to the port, they will be used only when the negotiation
process is started and will take effect only when the auto-negotiation
succeeds. However current settings are applied immediately to the
port when the Auto-Negotiation check box is cleared.
