Use the speed interface configuration mode command to manually specify the speed for a switch port. You can manually configure the duplex setting and the speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps ports. The 10/100/1000 Mbps ports can connect to either 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, or 1000BASE-T networks. When you connect a device (either a switch, router, or a workstation) to a port on a Cisco switch, the negotiation process will occur and the devices will agree on the transmission parameters. Configuring Port settings allows you to set the global and per. On the Port settings page, you can configure switch port parameters, including speed, duplex mode, flow control, isolation, mirroring, jumbo frames, discovery protocols (LLDP/CDP), multicast filtering, and energy efficiency settings to optimize network performance and functionality.
