You can add a line like:
ETHTOOL_OPTS="speed 100 duplex full autoneg off"
to the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth? files. But note that
if you hard set one side of a link you must do the same on the other
(switch) side or it will take the lack of negotiation to mean that it
must assume half duplex.
