2. Enable or disable the Auto Power Down Mode.
• Enable. When the port link is down, the PHY (physical layer device) will automatically
go down for a short period of time and then wake up to check link pulses. This allows
the port to continue to perform autonegotiation while consuming less power when no
link partner is present.
• Disable. Provide full power to the PHY even if the port link is down. The default is
Disable.
3. Enable or disable the EEE Mode.
• Enable. When the send and receive sides of a link are lightly loaded, the port can
transition to low power mode to save power.
• Disable. Provide full power to the PHY regardless of the link load. The default is
Disable.
4. Click the Apply button to send the updated configuration to the switch. Configuration
changes take effect immediately.
