What you're seeing is the reported speed of the vnic to the vSwitch. This will always be at 10 gig.

 

 

The uplink for the vSwitch can change in speed - but this is independent of the BIG-IP VE.

 

 

In other words, this is perfectly normal. You don't need to change the BIG-IP VE interface's speeds and duplexity from the stock settings.

 

 

 

You're right the speed is for the vSwitch which is 10gig.

 

It turned out the ESX MAC addresses and VLAN ports are all mixed up. After carefully matching them with the uplink switches, everything worked fine.

 

 

 

Thanks.
