We discuss that how to configure an interface or port of a cisco switch.
We discuss following features

(config-if) speed 100
(config-if) speed 1000
Duplex: This feature selects the mode of operation of any port of a switch
Full duplex : Device allowed to send and receive at the same time
Half duplex : Device not allowed to send and receive at the same time
(config) interface Fa0/1
(config-if) duplex auto
(config-if) duplex full
