Backbone-5000> (enable) set port duplex 3/2 auto
Usage: set port duplex <mod_num/port_num> <full|half>

Linksys does operate as a 100 Mbs FDX switch...but any switch when connected 
to the 5000 only gets a half duplex connection and I cannot manually set a 
linksys port...What do I have to setup for STP?  And I would think the 
linksys supports it as it is part of the std iirc...Attached find the output 
of these three commands "sh conf", "sh version", "sh module"...NOTE: Module 
3 is the one that I'm working with...

Thanks,
Nate
