Tri-Rate Ethernet Copper Interface

By default, the Tri-Rate Ethernet copper interfaces on MX-series routers operate at 1 Gbps. Tri-Rate Ethernet copper interfaces can also be configured to operate at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps.

Note: When you configure the Tri-Rate Ethernet copper interface to operate at 1 Gbps, autonegotiation must be enabled.

To configure a Tri-Rate Ethernet copper interface to operate at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps, include the speed statement at the [edit interfaces ge-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level:

[edit interfaces ge-fpc/pic/port]
speed (10m | 100m | 1g);

For information about configuring the link mode, see Configuring the Link Characteristics.
