See the type of interface using the name of the physical port type. For
the Ethernet 10/100 Mbps ports in the SmartSwitch device, FE-100TX
will be displayed. If a Fast Ethernet port is installed via an optional
HSIM, the interface displayed may be FE-100TX or FE100-FX. If a
Gigabit port is installed via an optional VHSIM, the interface displayed
may be GE-1000SX, GE-1000LX, or GE-1000CX.
See whether or not there is a physical connection from the port to
another device. One of the following values is displayed:
Link – There is a link signal present and a valid physical connection to
another device.
No Link – There is no link signal present and there is no valid physical
connection to another device.
See the current operational speed in Mbps (10, 100 or 1000). If the port
has not completed its auto-negotiation, "NA" displays.
See the current duplex setting as follows:
Half – the port is operating in half duplex mode.
Full – the port is operating in full duplex mode.
NA – the port has not completed its auto-negotiation.
See whether Auto-Negotiation (AutoNeg) or Manual is enabled. In
normal operation, the port with an FE-100TX interface is capable of
auto-negotiating the operational mode and no further user setup is
required.
NOTE: In normal operation, the front panel ports of the
SmartSwitch device automatically establish a link with the
device at the other end of the segment without requiring user
setup. However, Local Management provides the user with the
option of manually configuring that port.
