Enabling energy-efficient-ethernet (EEE)
Prerequisites
Before you enable energy-efficient-ethernet (EEE), you must insure that both sides of the link are EEE-capable to support the power-saving idle mode.
Energy-efficient-ethernet follows the 802.3az standard, which provides support for a system to operate in low-power idle mode during low-link use.
Enabling energy-efficient-ethernet (EEE)
To enable EEE on the specified port or a range of ports, use the following command:
int <port-list> energy-efficient-ethernet
