Level 1

Hi,

I have recently deployed 6xCat4506 with GigabitEthernet interfaces.

My question is; is there a way to leave all the interfaces as auto/auto but disable the ability to negoiate at Gig speed?

I have been unable to find a way to do this ...

Any help much appreciated.

If you have a 10/100/1000 card, you can configure it to operate at only 10/100. If you have a gig only card, you cannot.
