HDX – Full/Half Duplex (HDX1 is for port 1 and HDX2 is for port 2):
When this switch is in the ON position, the switch operates in Half Duplex
mode. When the switch is in the OFF position, the switch operates in Full
Duplex mode. Full Duplex gives a throughput of 200 Mbps. In Full Duplex
mode no repeaters are allowed in the path. Half duplex operation gives a
throughput of 100 Mbps.
The stack must be Reset after changing Half/Full Duplex mode.
•
FC – Flow Control (FC1 is for port 1 and FC2 is for port 2):
When this switch is in the ON position, the switch uses a proprietary Avaya
mechanism to prevent packet loss on the link due to congestion in full-duplex
mode.
•
ISL –Inter Switch Link Tagging (ISL1 is for port 1 and ISL2 is for port 2):
ISL Tagging expands Virtual LANs and Priority across the backbone. This
switch should be set to ON when you wish to make two Avaya switches
linked by the P113F act as a single logical entity. When set to OFF ports will
send standards based Fast Ethernet 100BASE-X packets.
If the settings of an existing P110 stack are changed, the stack must be reset. Press
and hold both buttons on the front panel simultaneously for a second or more to
reset the entire P110 stack. In a reset, all LED indicators turn on. Pressing reset does
not affect configuration settings.
Once you have set the switches, you may proceed with the physical installation of
the switch.
