About auto-negotiation
The default setting for the ETEP enables auto-negotiation, which negotiates the link speed, duplex setting,
and flow control. Use the autoneg command if the device that the ETEP connects to from a particular
port does not support auto-negotiation or flow control.

It is important to configure the ETEP and the other device the same way. Both devices should either auto-
negotiate or be set manually to the same speed and duplex mode. Having one device set manually and the
other auto-negotiate can cause problems that make the link perform slowly. When manually setting the
ETEP link speed, configure the speed and duplex mode to match that of the other device.
