Abstract
A network device, system-on-a-chip, and method of performing an auto-negotiation for a planarized computing system. In response to a link request, switching hardware determines whether a source of the link request is planarized or non-planarized. If a mismatch between a received link request and a sent link request occurs, a lower-level event is escalated to the operating system which is enabled to respond to continue the auto-negotiation process.
