It enables you to set the modein which inter-card links are established as needed.n An inter-card link refers to the internal links between the Fabric and all the servicemodules of an Ethernet switch.Inter-card links can be established in one of the following two modes:■ Auto-negotiation mode, where inter-card links are established throughnegotiation to improve the adaptability and stability. This mode is based on thecorresponding Ethernet standards. By default, the Fabric and the servicemodules in a Switch 7750 Ethernet switch negotiate to establish 1000 Mbpslinks in between.■ Fix mode, where 1000 Mbps links are established between the Fabric and theservice modules without negotiation. Therefore, the time for negotiation issaved. For the switches operating as network nodes, establishing inter-cardlinks in this mode improves the response speed and reduces the influence onaccess devices when module switchovers occur.n Since the two modes have no affect on the performance, it is unnecessary tomodify the existing configuration when you employ this function.Inter-Card Link StateAdjustmentConfigurationTable 725 Configure inter-card link state adjustmentOperation Command DescriptionEnter system view system-view -Set the mode in whichinter-card links are establishedset inlink { auto | fix } RequiredBy default, inter-card links areestablished in the autonegotiation mode
