The eight columns of the table display the following information:
Port
This shows the slot and the port to which the following information relates.
Type

therefore different ports can be used in some slots. The following port types are possible:
● TP 100 TX
● FO 100 FX
● FO 100 LD
● FO 100 LH+
● TP 1000 T
● FO 1000 SX

or half duplex (HD)).
Negotiation
Indicates whether autonegotiation is enabled or disabled.
Flow Ctrl.
Shows whether flow control is enabled or disabled.
Active
Shows whether or not the port is active (true) or inactive (false). For an inactive port, the
communications partner indicates the connection status "Link Down".
Status
Shows whether the port is enabled or disabled. Data traffic is possible only over an enabled
port. On the other hand, the communications partner of a port that is turned off indicates the
connection status "Link Up".
Note
The "Active" and "Status" states have no influence on the power supply with PoE ports. The
configuration of the power supply is separate and is made with the "PoE" menu item.
Link
Status of the link to the network. The following alternatives are possible:
● Up
The port has a valid link to the network, a link integrity signal is being received.
● down
The link is down, for example because the connected device is turned off.
