Configuration
The Configuration screen accesses multiple functions: It will display LinkRunner Pro version information, MAC
address, along with the serial number. It allows you to enable 802.1X security; change the cable length
measurements from feet to meters, set the power off timeout, use DHCP or manually enter the LinkRunner Pro IP
address, enter up to 10 IP addresses to PING, and enable options.
To avoid a duplicate IP address on your network, use DHCP instead of manually entering the IP address.
LinkRunner information
Displays LinkRunner Pro's serial number, MAC address, and software version
numbers.
User Preferences
When FDX is selected, sets the default to full duplex for non-negotiating ports;
Select ".1X" to enable 802.1X security. This allows the unit to link to an 802.1X
secure switch; Select the cable length units as either feet or meters; Set the
power off timeout to either 10 minutes or infinity. Use the right arrow key to
toggle units and the center button to save. You can configure 802.1X security
settings using the LinkRunner Connect PC application. The unit will not power
off in PING, switch discovery, IntelliTone, or reflect modes, or when the AC
adapter is connected.
Note: LinkRunner Pro supports the following encryption key sizes: 512, 768,
and 1024 bits.
LinkRunner IP address
Allows user to configure DHCP or use manual IP, Mask, and Router addresses.
To manually enter the IP address, uncheck DHCP using the left/right arrow keys
to check and uncheck the check box. Then, using the down arrow key, move
down to the IP address. Press the selection button (center). Move right to each
digit (by using the right arrow key) and use the up/down arrow keys to select
each digit value. Keep doing this until the IP address is entered. Press the center
button to save the information. Use the same procedure as above to edit the
Mask and Router information.
Enable VLAN and enter its ID and priority. DHCP, Ping and ARP packets will then
be tagged with this VLAN ID. Uncheck VLAN when connecting to non-VLAN
networks.
