In the example, above, several ports display “Auto” in the Speed field, including port 0/1. In Figure 234,
the speed of port 0/1 is set to 100Mb and then its auto-negotiation is disabled.

Setting 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 will flap between an auto-neg-error and forced-master/slave states.
