Autonegotiation

Autonegotiation is an Ethernet procedure by which two connected devices choose common transmission parameters, such as speed, duplex mode, and flow control.

By default, autonegotiation is enabled on the ALOHA.

Speed

Autonegotiation is enabled by default, so speed is not forced.

1. Browse the ALOHA WUI.

2. Open the Services tab.

3. Click Setup on the line corresponding to the network interface you want to manage.

4. Add, remove, or edit the speed directive using the syntax below:

   speed <10|100|1000>

   10	force 10Mbits
   100	force 100Mbits
   1000	force 1Gbits

   service network eth0
     auto off
     speed 100

5. Click OK .

6. Click Close.

7. The line corresponding to the Network Interface now appears in orange with the flag Need apply.

   

8. Click Reload .

Duplex

By default autonegotiation is enabled, so duplex is not forced.

1. Browse the ALOHA WUI.

2. Open the Services tab.

3. Click Setup on the line corresponding to the network interface you want to manage.

4. Add, remove, or edit the duplex directive using the syntax below:

   duplex <half|full>

   half	force half duplex
   full	force full duplex

   service network eth0
     auto off
     duplex full

5. Click OK.

6. Click Close.

7. The line corresponding to the Network Interface now appears in orange with the flag Need apply.

   

8. Click Reload .

Maximum Transmssion Unit (MTU)

The default MTU value is 1500.

1. Browse the ALOHA WUI.

2. Open the Services tab.

3. Click Setup on the line corresponding to the network interface you want to manage.

4. Add, remove, or edit the mtu directive using the syntax below:

   mtu <mtu>

   service network eth0
     mtu 1500

5. Click OK.

6. Click Close.

7. The line corresponding to the Network Interface now appears in orange with the flag Need apply.
