   * Monitor (log only) - the passive mode. This acts as an early warning system without \\ changing hardware settings. It compares the current error count against the baseline. \\ If the delta exceeds your threshold, it writes a warning to the system log (logger). \\ Use this to gather data or troubleshoot a "noisy" line without risking a network disconnect.   * Monitor (log only) - the passive mode.

   * Recover - the active/adaptive mode. It attempts to save the connection by sacrificing \\ speed for stability. It identifies the failing port and steps down the speed (say, from 1000FD \\ to 100FD). It waits for the **Hold Time** to expire. If errors persist, it steps down again to \\ say, 10HD). If it reaches the lowest setting and still fails, it disables the port entirely. \\ The goal is to maintain a “limping” connection rather than lose all connectivity. This is \\ ideal for cables that are slightly damaged or picking up interference.   * Recover - the active/adaptive mode. It attempts to save the connection by sacrificing \\ speed for stability.

   * Disable port - the **aggressive** mode. It follows a "zero-tolerance" policy for port errors. \\ As soon as a port exceeds the error threshold (''BASE_RATE''), the script immediately closes \\ the port using the robocfg tool. This approach protects the rest of the network or a\\ background compilation process from being affected by a "chatty" or failing hardware \\ interface. It forces manual intervention to re-enable the port.   * Disable port - the **aggressive** mode.
