Switch / Server - speed / duplex

Hi,

I had a debate with some people at wok on the effects of setting the speed / duplex at the switch, as opposed to auto negotiate. If for example, the switch interface is set to 100Mb/Full Duplex that is the only speed the the node/s connected on that port can connect at? Not

10mb/Half duplex, not 100mb/Half Duplex etc etc. Is this correct?

Also if someone could provide a link to where this is documented it would be appreciated...

Thanks in Advance

R.
