Basic Settings

2.4 Port Configuration

This configuration table allows you to configure every port of the device.
In the "Name" column, you can enter a name for every port.
In the "Ports on" column, you can switch on the port by marking it here.
In the "Connection error propagate" column, you can specify that the
signal contact is to be opened when a link alarm occurs.
In the "Automatic Configuration" column, you can activate the automatic
selection the operating mode (Autonegotiation) and the automatic assign-
ing of the connections (Auto cable crossing) of a TP port by marking the
appropriate field. After the automatic configuration has been switched on,
it takes a few seconds for the operating mode to be set.
In the "Manual Configuration" column, you set the operating mode for this
port. The choice of operating modes depends on the media module.
The possible operating modes are:
– 10 Mbit/s half duplex (HDX),
– 10 Mbit/s full duplex (FDX),
– 100 Mbit/s half duplex (HDX),
– 100 Mbit/s full duplex (FDX),
– 1000 Mbit/s half duplex (HDX) and
– 1000 Mbit/s full duplex (FDX).
The "Link/Current operating mode" column displays the current operating
mode and thereby also an existing connection.
Power MICE:
In the "Cable-Crossing" column, you assign the connections of a TP port.
The possible settings are:
– enable: the device swaps the port output and port input of the
TP port.
– disable: the device does not swap the port output and port input of the
TP port.
– unsupported: the port does not support this function (optical port,
TP SFP port).
In the "Flow Control" column, you checkmark this port to specify that flow
control is active here. You also activate the global "Flow Control" switch
in the „Switching Global"
