   Do you mean that NICs are going to trace cable technology so that they 
always understand the relationship between bandwidth and number of ports? 
If they are going to set rules based on bandwidth, how can you maintain 
rules if a new technology comes in which will change the relationship such 
like 30M with fewer number of ports.  I do not think bandwidth is a valid 
information to be kept in the long term.
