	Full duplex means 2 channels where each channel goes in the opposite direction of the other. What this means is that at 100 Mbps full duplex you can send 100 Mbps of data and receive 100 Mbps of data for an aggregate of 200 Mbps. Collisions in full duplex cannot happen. [[Ethernet]] [[switch]]es are full-duplex most of the time.		Full duplex means 2 channels where each channel goes in the opposite direction of the other.

			=== Forcing and interface into full duplex mode ===

			In [[OpenBSD]] you can see the media modes of an interface with the [[ifconfig]] command:

			$ ifconfig -m xl0
			xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
			lladdr 00:60:08:5a:86:82
			media: Ethernet 100baseTX full-duplex
			status: no carrier
			supported media:
			media none
			media 10baseT
			media 10baseT mediaopt full-duplex
			media 100baseTX
			media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
			media autoselect

			To set it to full duplex you would type:

			$ ifconfig xl0 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
