Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A network device automatically detects the best protocol a network will support. The network device includes a driver for transmitting data, a receiver for receiving data, and a port operationally coupled to the driver and receiver. The network device further includes negotiation logic coupled to the driver and receiver for selecting a protocol in coordination with other network devices. The network device further includes error detection logic and backs down to a lower transmission rate if errors are detected after the initial negotiation of the selected protocol.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A network device, comprising: at least one interface to at least one Ethernet port; and negotiation logic, when operational, to: participate in a first Ethernet auto-negotiation to determine a first Ethernet protocol among multiple Ethernet protocols supported by the network device, the first Ethernet protocol corresponding to a first data transmission rate; and subsequently, participate in a second Ethernet auto-negotiation to determine a second Ethern…
