Hello,

Is there a summary command to show whether the ports on a switch are in half or full duplex and in 10/100/1000?

Thanks

Hi

And you can also use the mode button on the switch.

That will most of the time tell you the information also.

Good luck

Port        Name               Status       Vlan       Duplex    Speed    Type

Fa0/1                        notconnect     108          auto         auto    10/100BaseTX

Hi all,

Nice answers. Another way to find out whether the ports on a switch are in half or full duplex is using CDP with the command show cdp neighbors detail

Please find below the output. It shows the neighbor duplex operation.

  • Duplex: full  //Neighbor connected to that port is operating in full duplex.
  • Duplex: half  //Neighbor connected to that port is operating in half duplex.
  • Duplex: half (Mismatch) //Neighbor connected to that port is in half duplex but the local port is in full duplex.
  • Duplex: full (Mismatch) //Neighbor connected to that port is in full duplex but the local port is in half duplex.

SW-L3-02#show cdp nei det
-------------------------
<output omitted>
Native VLAN: 1
Duplex: full  //shows the neighbor duplex operation.
Management address(es):
IP address: 192.168.1.10

Hope it helps.

Kind regards,

Carlos Acosta
