You must set the Traffic Port Speed/Mode to match the Ethernet port settings of the
connected device port to avoid experiencing significant performance degradation.
For example, if the connected device port is set for Auto Negotiate, then you must
also set the Packet Processor to Auto Negotiate. Comtech EF Data recommends that
you use Auto Negotiate mode, unless the connected device port does not support
Auto Negotiate. In such cases, both Ethernet ports must be set to the same Manual
settings (i.e., 100 Mbps Full Duplex).
