About interface media type and duplex mode
All interfaces on the system default to auto-negotiate speed and full duplex settings. We recommend that
you also configure any network equipment that you plan to use with the system to auto-negotiate speed
and duplex settings. If you connect the system to network devices with forced speed and duplex settings,
you must force the speed and duplex settings of the system to match the settings of the other network
device.
Important: If the system is attempting to auto-negotiate interface settings with an interface that has the
speed and duplex settings forced (that is, auto-negotiation is disabled), you will experience severe
performance degradation.
By default, the media type on interfaces is set to automatically detect speed and duplex settings, but you
can specify a media type as well. Use the following syntax to set the media type:
tmsh modify net interface
<interface_key>
media
<media_type>
| auto
If the media type does not accept the duplex mode setting, a message appears. If media type is set to
auto
, or if the interface does not accept the duplex mode setting, the duplex setting is not saved to the
/
config/bigip_base.conf
file.
Important: Auto-MDI/MDIX functionality is retained when you manually configure an interface to use
specific speed and duplex settings. You can use either a straight-through cable or a crossover cable when
media settings are forced, and you will be able to successfully link to either DTE or DCE devices.
