crossover - straight through cable question

[peter-net]

can someone tell me the command syntax to allow a switch port to "auto sense" or electronically re-orientate pin outs between a crossover and a straight through cable? Thanks, peter@it-123.co.uk

"The Auto-MDIX feature is enabled by default on switches running Cisco IOS

Release 12.2(1SE or later. For releases between Cisco IOS Release 12.1

(14)EA1 and 12.2(1SE, the Auto-MDIX feature is disabled by default. For

configuration information for this feature, refer to the switch software

configuration guide or the switch command reference"

I copied and pasted this from a posting from another site! HTH

This is only available on the newer switches and routers , the older stuff like 2950,3550's do not support this.
