I simply gave this command so that I wouldn't have to reboot (I assume). I gave it for xl0 since that is what I see in the rc.conf file. I note that the line that says "media:" has changed now and the "autoselect" has disappeared; specifically it says: media: 100baseTX status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX Does this mean that the system will now force 100 Mbps and full-duplex on that NIC for all communication?
