This example shows how to set the port speed to 100 Mbps on port 2/2:

Console> (enable) set port speed 2/2 100

Port 2/2 speed set to 100 Mbps.

Console> (enable)

Hello Alan,

console speed can be changed by modifying the config-register (this is true on routers)

to see current config-register value use sh ver in a telnet session if the value is different then 0x2102, or 0x102 change it with

conf t

config-register 0x2102

end

copy running-config startup-config

reload

I've found a reference to this other way:

line con 0

speed

However, I would do it on a telnet session not while using the console port.

Hope to help

Giuseppe
