<ul></ul><p>The default is to not set a value, so the OS handles it automatically.</p>
<p>Autonegotiate forces the NIC to autonegotiate rather than let the OS decide.</p>
<p>The others (attempt to) force the NIC to behave as they state in terms of duplex and speed.</p>
<p>The text could probably be clarified a bit, but the list is populated automatically from the list of media provided by the network card (ifconfig -m), so that may be part of the reason for the inconsistency in the list itself.</p> pfSense - Bug #1910: Duplex description inconsistencyhttps://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/1910?journal_id=71072011-09-27T10:18:15ZPeter O
<ul></ul><p>With "ifconfig -m" My Broadcom, Intel and Realtek chipsets call it "Autoselect" so I think the text can be changed to something like:<br />"WARNING: You MUST leave this set to "Default" (let OS decide, usually defaults to "autonegotiate") or "Autoselect" (autonegotiate) unless the port this interface connects to has its speed and duplex forced."</p> pfSense - Bug #1910: Duplex description inconsistencyhttps://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/1910?journal_id=71192011-09-28T22:40:21ZJim Pingle
