Auto-negotiation for Management Interfaces

For network management interfaces (wancom), set the parameters that enable or disable auto-negotiation, duplex mode, and the data rate.

Set the following parameters to configure auto-negotiation for management interfaces:

  1. auto-negotiation—Leave this parameter set to enabled so that the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller and the device to which it is linked can automatically negotiate the duplex mode and speed for the link.

    If auto-negotiation is enabled, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller begins to negotiate the link to the connected device at the duplex mode you configure. If auto-negotiation is disabled, then the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller will not engage in a negotiation of the link and will operate only at the duplex mode and speed you set. The default is enabled. The valid values are:

    • enabled | disabled

  2. duplex-mode—Set the duplex mode. The default is full.

    Given an operating speed of 100 Mbps, full duplex mode lets both devices on a link send and receive packets simultaneously using a total bandwidth of 200 Mbps. Given the same operating speed, half duplex mode limits the devices to one channel with a total bandwidth of 100 Mbps. The valid values are:

    • half | full

  3. speed—Set the speed in Mbps of the management phy-interfaces; this field is only used if the auto-negotiation field is set to disabled. 100 is the default. The valid values are:
    • 10 | 100 | 1000
