Abstract
An interface obtains basic page information from another interface. The basic page information includes N bits, the N bits include an FEC function indicator bit sequence including an FEC ability indicator bit and an FEC requested indicator bit. The interface determines, based on values of a plurality of bits in the N bits, an operation mode supported by the another interface. The FEC function indicator bit sequence includes a first FEC function indicator bit corresponding to m FEC abilities; or the FEC function indicator bit sequence includes a first FEC ability indicator bit corresponding to n FEC abilities, where both m and n are greater than or equal to 1. Because one FEC function indicator bit indicates more FEC abilities, N bits in a basic page can carry more information, so that a process of increasing auto-negotiation pages is slowed down, thereby avoiding impact on auto-negotiation efficiency.
