Maybe a silly question, but did you check the port settings for the 7206?? It might have been set to half, and for some silly reason the CAT is opting for Auto Duplex rather than barking back at ya about the negotiation.
Just a thought. If memory serves me correctly you should have the options of Full|Half|Auto for the duplex setting of the SET command. Let us know what you find, this could be simple, but interesting. -Mark Odette II StellarConnection Services -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Keith Woodworth Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2001 7:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Auto sensing mode... [7:24375] Have discovered some packet loss on our network and figured it out to a duplex setting mismatch between two FE ports on Catalyst 5500 and a 7206. The 5500 is set to auto mode for both the duplex and speed. The speed is ok but it autoed to half instead of full. When I try to put the port in full duplex I get this: Cisco 5500> (enable) set port duplex 10/11 full Port 10/11 is in auto-sensing mode. The port is in use obviously. How to pull this FE port from auto into manual settings? Ive looked the set port commands but none seem to relate to autosensing.
