USG: set speed and duplex mode (auto-negotiation)

All ports of a ZyWALL USG are set to Auto-Negotiation by default. The connection speed (10M / 100M / 1000M) and the transmission mode (Half Duplex / Full Duplex) are negotiated with the connected network component and the highest possible mode is selected. The settings can also be set manually via an SSH or Telnet connection.

Auto Negotiation (up to 1000M / Full)

Router> configure terminal

Router (config) # port status Port4 (1 | 2 | 3..x)

Router (config-port-status) # negotiation auto

Router (config-port-status) # exit

Router (config) # write

Manual configuration (10M / 100M, Half / Full)

Router> configure terminal

Router (config) # port status Port4 (1 | 2 | 3..x)

Router (config-port-status) # duplex half (duplex full)

Router (config-port-status) # speed 10 (speed 100)

Router (config-port-status) # exit
