NOTE: When the state of a port is disabled, settings associated with the port can still be configured.
However, the modified settings will only take effect when the state of the port is enabled.
Description
is in the MDI mode and can be connected to a port (in the MDIX mode) on
another switch through a straight cable.
Select to either turn flow control On or Off here. Ports configured for full-duplex
use 802.3x flow control, half-duplex ports use back-pressure flow control, and
Auto ports use an automatic selection of the two.
Select the duplex mode used here. Options to choose from are Auto and Full.
Select the port speed option here. This option will manually force the connection
speed on the selected port to only connect at the speed specified here.
Options to choose from are Auto, 100M, 1000M, 1000M Master, 1000M Slave,
10G, 10G Master, and 10G Slave.
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.
• 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.
When the Speed is set to Auto, these capabilities are advertised during auto-
negotiation.
