Personally, I have for the most part (various equipment) found that auto-neg works fine although I know that a lot of people will say to nail both ends to 100/full. One observation I made, on HP equipment at least, is that if you have auto-MDI/X crossover enabled then that will often interfere with auto-neg working correctly. On HP switches, unless you have very old firmware, you can turn off the auto-MDI/X. -Paul- _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
