Changing a Port's Settings

If a port is a member of an aggregated link (or trunk),
you will not be able to configure its individual port
settings. All member ports of an aggregated link will
have the same settings, and you can configure these
by clicking the AL link on the Port Configuration
screen. See "Configuring Trunk Settings"
page 40.
To change the settings of a port:
Under the Port column of the Port Configuration
1
screen, click the port number that you want to con-
figure. The Port Settings screen appears, as shown in
Figure 13.
