Configuring Interface Duplex and Speed
By default, the CSS Fast Ethernet interface and Gigabit Ethernet interface are 
configured to auto-negotiate. The CSS automatically detects the network line 
speed (Fast Ethernet only) and duplex of incoming signals, and synchronizes 
those parameters during data transfer. Auto-negotiation enables the CSS and the 
other devices on the link to achieve the maximum common level of operation. 
Note
The CSS 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet port supports 1000 Mbps full-duplex 
operation only and does not support auto-negotiation.
When using Fast Ethernet ports with older equipment that cannot transmit the 
duplex and speed with the signals, you can manually configure the speed 
(10 Mbps, 100 Mbps) and duplex (half or full duplex) of the CSS port to match 
the transmitting equipment.
When you use Gigabit Ethernet ports, if the link does not come up (perhaps due 
to traffic congestion), you may need to force the CSS and its link partner in to a 
specific mode. The CSS allows you to manually select a full duplex and flow 
control (pause frame) mode. Flow control allows the CSS to control traffic during 
congestion by notifying the other port to stop transmitting until the congestion 
clears. When the other device receives the pause frame, it temporarily stops 
transmitting data packets. When the CSS detects local congestion and becomes 
overwhelmed with data, the Gigabit Ethernet ports transmits a pause frame. Both 
the CSS Gigabit Ethernet and its link partner must be configured with the same 
pause method (asymmetric, symmetric, or both). By default, all Gigabit Ethernet 
ports are configured to full duplex mode with symmetric pause (pause frames 
transmitted and received by the CSS).
