Port Status

This window is used to view the switch's physical port status and settings.
To view the following window, click System > Port Configuration > Port Status, as shown below:
Description
Options to choose from are Auto, 10M, 100M, 1000M, 1000M Master,
1000M Slave, 10G, 10G Master, 10G Slave, and 40G.
The Master setting will allow the port to advertise capabilities related
to duplex, speed and physical layer type. The master setting will also
determine the master and slave relationship between the two
connected physical layers. This relationship is necessary for
establishing the timing control between the two physical layers. The
timing control is set on a master physical layer by a local source.
The Slave setting uses loop timing, where the timing comes from a
data stream received from the master. If one connection is set for
master, the other side of the connection must be set for slave. Any
other configuration will result in a link down status for both ports.
•
Auto: Specifies that for copper ports, auto-negotiation will start
to negotiate the speed and flow control with its link partner. For
fiber ports, auto-negotiation will start to negotiate the clock and
flow control with its link partner.
•
10M: Specifies to force the port speed to 10Mbps. This option is
only available for 10Mbps copper connections.
•
100M: Specifies to force the port speed to 100Mbps. This option
is only available for 100Mbps copper connections.
•
1000M: Specifies to force the port speed to 1Gbps. This option is
only available for 1Gbps fiber connections.
•
1000M Master: Specifies to force the port speed to 1Gbps and
operates as the master, to facilitate the timing of transmit and
receive operations. This option is only available for 1Gbps
copper connections.
•
1000M Slave: Specifies to force the port speed to 1Gbps and
operates as the slave, to facilitate the timing of transmit and
receive operations. This option is only available for 1Gbps
copper connections.
•
10G: Specifies to force the port speed to 10Gbps. This option is
only available for 10Gbps fiber connections.
•
10G Master: Specifies to force the port speed to 10Gbps and
operates as the master, to facilitate the timing of transmit and
receive operations. This option is only available for 10Gbps
copper connections.
•
10G Slave: Specifies to force the port speed to 10Gbps and
operates as the slave, to facilitate the timing of transmit and
receive operations. This option is only available for 10Gbps
copper connections.
•
40G: Specifies to force the port speed to 40Gbps. This option is
only available for 40Gbps fiber connections.
When the Speed is set to Auto, these capabilities are advertised
during auto-negotiation.
