Re: [OT] Network Analysis Software Advice Needed

[Kyle Gordon <kyle@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Evening,

Speeds and duplexes :-)

Yup, just let it find its own top speed by use of autonegotation. If all
the cabling is up to scratch, it should work flawlessly. Since it's a
standard in its own right, and required for gigabit, I'd be surprised if
stuff doesn't support it these days!

Hope this helps

Kyle
