Description
Select the unit to configure.
Select the appropriate port range used for the configuration here.
Toggle the State field to either enable or disable a given port or group of ports.
Toggle the Speed/Duplex field to select the speed and full-duplex/half-duplex state of the
port. Auto denotes auto-negotiation among 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps devices, in full- or
half-duplex (except 1000 Mbps which is always full duplex). The Auto setting allows the
port to automatically determine the fastest settings the device the port is connected to
can handle, and then to use those settings. The other options are 10M Half, 10M Full,
100M Half, 100M Full, 1000M Full_Master, 1000M Full_Slave, and 1000M Full. There is
no automatic adjustment of port settings with any option other than Auto.
The Switch allows the user to configure three types of gigabit connections; 1000M
Full_Master, 1000M Full_Slave, and 1000M Full. Gigabit connections only support full
duplex connections and take on certain characteristics that are different from the other
choices listed.
