5. Tap the Ethernet Ports icon.
6. With LAN Port highlighted, tap the desired speed and duplex method. Applicable values include:
• Auto (Default):
Auto-negotiation is when two connected devices choose common transmission parameters.
In the auto-negotiation process, the connected devices share their speed and duplex
capabilities and connect at the highest common denominator (the highest speed being
1000Mbps and highest duplex being full). Auto-negotiation can be used by devices that are
capable of different transmission rates, different duplex modes, and/or different standards
at the same speed. You can set the ports on the IP phone to auto-negotiate during
transmission.
• Half 10Mbps or Half 100Mbps:
Half-duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both directions on a
signal carrier, but not at the same time. For example, on a LAN using a technology that has
half-duplex transmission, one device can send data on the line and then immediately receive
data on the line from the same direction in which data was just transmitted. Half-duplex
transmission implies a bidirectional line (one that can carry data in both directions). On the
IP phone, you can set the half-duplex transmission to transmit in 10Mbps or in 100Mbps.
7. Tap PC Port located in the left column.
8. With PC Port highlighted, tap the desired speed and duplex method. The PC port shares the
same applicable values as the LAN port above (Auto, Half 10Mbps, and Half 100Mbps).
9. Tap Port Mirroring located in the left column.
10. With Port Mirroring highlighted, tap Enable or Disable (default) to enable or disable port
mirroring. Port mirroring allows you to mirror the LAN and PC ports to and from the phone for
debugging purposes.
11. Tap the Save softkey to save your changes.

VLAN Settings

Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a feature that allows for multiple logical Ethernet interfaces to
send outgoing RTP packets over a single physical Ethernet. By configuring specific VLAN
parameters, the Mitel MiVoice 6900 Series IP phones have the capability of adding and removing
tags, and processing the ID and priority information contained within the tag.
