. For example,
GigabitEthernet1/0/1 Interface
.
4.
Set the duplex mode of
the Ethernet interface.
duplex
{

|
full

half
}
The default setting is
auto
for Ethernet
interfaces.
Copper ports operating at 1000 Mbps or
10 Gbps and fiber ports do not support the
half
keyword.
5.
Set the port speed.

The default setting is
auto
for Ethernet
interfaces.
Support for the keywords depends on the
interface type. For more information, see
Layer 2—LAN Switching Command

Interfaces on an HPE 5130/5510 10GbE
SFP+ 2-port Module (JH157A) or HPE
5130/5510 10GBASE-T 2-port Module
(JH156A) interface card support only the
10000
keyword.
6.
Configure the expected
bandwidth of the
interface.
bandwidth
bandwidth-value
By default, the expected bandwidth (in
kbps) is the interface baud rate divided by
1000.
7.
Restore the default
settings for the Ethernet
interface.

8.
Bring up the Ethernet
interface.
undo shutdown
By default, Ethernet interfaces are in up
state.
Configuring jumbo frame support
An Ethernet interface might receive some frames larger than the standard Ethernet frame size during
high-throughput data exchanges, such as file transfers. These frames are called jumbo frames.
The interface processes jumbo frames in the following ways:
•
When the Ethernet interface is configured to deny jumbo frames (by using the
undo
jumboframe enable
command), the Ethernet interface discards jumbo frames without further
processing.
•
When the Ethernet interface is configured with jumbo frame support, the Ethernet interface
performs the following operations:
{
Processes jumbo frames within the specified length.
{
Discards jumbo frames exceeding the specified length without further processing.
To configure jumbo frame support in interface view:
