    1-10 Introduction MII Port To further enhance Desktop Switch FSD-1020 compatibility, an MII Port (Medium Independent Interface) is located on the rear panel. The MII port is shared with port #1, when either is in use the other is disabled. The MII port does not support Auto-Negotiation therefore the speed and duplex settings must be made manually, through the Mini-Console.

    The network manager may want to see the traffic load for every segment and try to balance the load. It is easy to do so with Desktop Switch FSD-1020 by selecting the UTILIZATION item. While the item is selected, the level of Utilization for the enabled ports goes up and down as the traffic load varies.

  • Page 38: Configuring Ports

    This device will encounter problems unless it is configured correctly, to match the setting of remote sites. Fortunately, all the ports of Desktop Switch FSD-1020 support Auto-Negotiation and all ports are configured in this mode. In the Auto-Negotiation mode, it learns the setting of the opposite site and configures itself to meet its counter part.

  • Page 41: Loop Isolation

    The switching device can not sustain a loop because it produces Broadcast Storm thereby jamming the system with looping packets. Desktop Switch FSD-1020 supports isolating the looped ports. If the function is enabled, the device will monitor all ports to see if there are any loops.

  • Page 42: Flow Control

    Flow Control Flow Control is another important feature supported by Desktop Switch FSD-1020. This feature provides a back-pressure method of preventing any packet loss, controlling the buffer-memory usage on every port effectively. It is disabled at the time of shipment from the manufacturer. You have to enable the function through the Mini-Console.
