The following example disables auto-negotiation on the remote interface. The speed is set to 100 Mbps
full-duplex, and flow control is set to on.

Setting Loss of Signal Pass Through
The ETEP can be configured to propagate a loss of signal event detected at one of its data ports to the
device connected to its other data port. The ETEP performs this function by monitoring for loss of signal
at the port’s receiver. For example, when the loss of signal is detected on the ETEP’s remote port, the
local port transmitter is disabled, generating a loss of signal event in connecting device’s port. When the
loss of signal event clears on the remote port, the local port transmitter is enabled, clearing the event in
the connecting device’s port. Similarly, when a loss of signal is detected on the local port, the remote port
transmitter is disabled.
Alternatively, the ETEP port transmitter can be configured to always remain enabled, regardless of the
other port’s link state. In this state the ETEP can reliably recover from a link loss. But because the
transmitter is always on, the appliance may inadvertently mask cable or device failures in the network.
The transmitter behavior configuration should be the same on both the local and remote ports.
To change the transmitter behavior:
1 Enter remote or local configuration mode.
admin> configure
config> {local-interface | remote-interface}
2 Configure the tx-enable command. Attributes are described in Table 17 .
tx-enable {always | follow-rx}
Table 17 tx-enable command description
Attribute Description
always The transmitter is always on regardless of whether a signal is detected.
follow-rx The transmitter follows the behavior of the receiver. If loss of signal is
detected on the remote port, then the transmitter on the local port is
disabled. Similarly, if loss of signal is detected on the local port, the ETEP
disables the transmitter on the remote port. When the lost signal is restored,
the correlating transmitter is enabled. This is the default setting.
