The interface is set to half duplex. Collisions are a normal part of half duplex Ethernet.
However, do you really need it to be confiugred as half duplex? What does it connect to? If it connects to a single port like a router or switch port or to a single workstation or server, then you can use full duplex. In other words, if it's a point-to-point link, then you can use full duplex, and no collisions will occur. Both ends should be configured as full duplex (or to use auto negotiation). If it connects to a shared network, like a hub, then it must use half duplex and you will get collisions. They are not a problem. The Ethernet interface retransmits if there is a collision.
