MDI Mode with Autopolarity Turned Off

Version 32.6.1 adds support for configuring Medium-Dependent Interface (MDI) mode when autopolarity is turned off. When disabling autopolarity, you have the option to set the port‘s polarity or MDI mode to straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDIX) mode irrespective of the native MDI mode of the port. The autopolarity feature is enabled by default.
