[nsp] another counter funny

[Christopher J. Wolff]

Gert,

I set a full/100 port on a cat 3550 for connection into a Nortel BPS.
Unbeknownst to me, the Nortel BPS port was set up as auto detect.  The
Nortel autodetected that the cat 3550 port was half/100.  There were many
collisions recorded on the cat 3550 port counters.

YMMV,

Christopher
