According to the standard, there is optional 10base-t1l specific 2.4 Vpp operating mode. To be able to operate in this mode, HW should be designed to do so. And other way around, if HW is designed for explosive environment, it should never operate in 2.4 Vpp mode. So, depending on this property, the ability of the link-partner and user space configuration, we may allow to auto negotiate this mode. The question is, should it actually be called "an-", since this property should limit automatic and manual link configuration Regards, Oleksij -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Steuerwalder Str. 21 | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 |
