While experimenting with a copper passthrough module in bladecenter I found out that this needs autonegotiation enabled in order to work properly. This quick hack enables it with the sideeffect of breaking other bladecenter switch configurations. If anyone has any suggestions or has experimented with the same configuration, feel free to comment.
