Set Auto-Negotiation Options
The
negotiation auto
command provides a mode option for configuring an individual port to forced
master/ forced slave once auto-negotiation is enabled.
CAUTION: Ensure that only one end of the node is configured as forced-master and the other is
configured as forced-slave. If both are configured the same (that is, both as forced-master or both as
forced-slave), the
show interface
command flaps between an auto-neg-error and forced-master/
slave states.
Example of the
negotiation auto
Command
Dell(conf)# int tengigabitethernet 1/1
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1)#neg auto
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1-autoneg)# ?

Adjusting the Keepalive Timer
To change the time interval between keepalive messages on the interfaces, use the
keepalive
command.
The interface sends keepalive messages to itself to test network connectivity on the interface.
To change the default time interval between keepalive messages, use the following command.
• Change the default interval between keepalive messages.

View Advanced Interface Information
The following options have been implemented for the
show [ip | running-config] interfaces
commands for (only) stack-unit interfaces.
When you use the
configured

Dummy stack-unit interfaces (created with the
stack-unit
command) are treated like any other physical
interface.
