+ <para>Enables or disables automatic negotiation of transmission parameters.
+ Autonegotiation is a procedure by which two connected ethernet devices choose
+ common transmission parameters, such as speed, duplex mode, and flow control.
+ Takes a boolean value. Unset by default, which means that the kernel default
+ will be used.</para>

+ <para>Note that if autonegotiation is enabled, speed and duplex settings are
