Abstract
A plurality of lanes are formed between an Ethernet apparatus and a remote Ethernet apparatus. The Ethernet apparatus determines a transmission rate for transmitting a packet and determines the number of lanes to transmit a packet among a plurality of lanes according to the determined transmission rate. The Ethernet apparatus activates the determined number of lanes of a plurality of lanes and transmits the packet to the remote Ethernet apparatus through the activated lanes. Further, the Ethernet apparatus sets the number of lanes for receiving a packet according to a transmission rate, activates the set number of lanes of a plurality of lanes in a state that can receive the packet according to the set number of lanes, and receives packets that are transmitted from the remote Ethernet apparatus through the activated lanes.
