10M Ethernet connection

[neil]

Hi Mark,
  I have 5 TCP connections, 4 of which are 100M and the other a 10M.  I have the default speed as Auto Negotiation, how does this work, will this reduce the 4 100M connection down to 10M ? or I will have both speeds?

Thanks
Neil

Hi Neil

The Ethernet connection works at one speed. Presumably this is 100M.

If you have TCP partner on a 10M Ethernet the conversion between 100M and 10M is performed in the switch connected between the two networks segments. The traffic will always be at 100M from your board.

Regards

Mark
