6.14.5 Setting the FE-100TX Advertised Ability

In normal operation, a port (15 or 16) with an FE-100TX auto-negotiates
to the highest speed possible. Under some circumstances, the Network
Administrator may want the port to advertise only some of the available
modes and not operate in other modes. This field steps between 10Base-T,
10Base-TFD (full duplex), 100Base-TX, and 100Base-TXFD (full
duplex). To set the advertised ability, proceed as follows:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Advertised Ability field.
2. Use the SPACE bar to select the mode to enable or disable.
3. Use the LEFT-ARROW key to move back to the Advertised Ability
selection and use the SPACE bar to select the next mode to enable or
disable.
4. Use the RIGHT-ARROW key to move across to the Enable/Disable
field to the right of the selection.
5. Use the SPACE bar to select Enable or Disable. Press ENTER.
Continue this process until you have completed enabling or disabling
the advertised modes.
6. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command. Press ENTER.
The message "SAVED OK" appears and Local Management saves the
changes to memory.
