from man 4 dc :
     100baseTX             Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) operation.  The
                           mediaopt option can also be used to enable
full-
                           duplex operation.  Not specifying full duplex
im-
                           plies half-duplex mode.

Next time, please have a look at the on-line manual
