everyone can send and receive at the same time. The main advantage of full-duplex over half-duplex communication is performance. NICs can operate twice as fast in full-duplex mode as they do normally in half-duplex mode. p698

communications travel in both directions but in only one direction at any given time. Think of a road where construction is being done on one lane— traffic can go in both directions but in only one direction at a time at that location. p698
half duplexing

auto duplexing
implements packet scheduling to control the flow of traffic and help with network transmission speeds. No properties can be configured for the service itself. p699
