LABEL DESCRIPTION
Edit Select an entry, and click this button to configure the speed and the duplex mode of the
Ethernet connection on this port.
Name This field displays the name of the port.
Status This field displays the speed and the duplex mode of the Ethernet connection on the port.
Type This field displays the cable type that is used on the port.
Setting Select the speed and the duplex mode of the Ethernet connection on this port. Choices
are Auto Negotiate, 10Mpbs, 100Mbps, 1Gpbs and 2.5Gbps.
Selecting Auto Negotiate allows one port to negotiate with a peer port automatically to
obtain the connection speed (of up to 1000M) and duplex mode that both ends support.
When auto-negotiation is turned on, a port on the Zyxel Device negotiates with the peer
automatically to determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer port does
not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the Zyxel Device determines the
connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half duplex mode. When
the Zyxel Device's auto-negotiation is turned off, a port uses the pre-configured speed and
duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to make sure that the settings
of the peer port are the same in order to connect.
Interface This field displays the interface for the port.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device.
Reset Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
