Clifford · Answer 1

b) the automatic configuration of an interface for a straight-through or a crossover Ethernet cable connection

Explanation:

On an interface, if an automatic version of an interface crossover is allowed to work on a given interface, the needed cable-type connection will be naturally connected and the right connection will be developed for the specific system. This is widely known as the auto-MDIX feature. Based on the information, the correct option is option b.
