3 Refer to the LAN Ethernet Timeout field to define how LAN Ethernet inactivity is processed by the
Access Point.
Use the Ethernet Port Timeout drop-down menu to define how the Access Point interprets inactivity
for the LAN assigned to the Ethernet port. When Enabled is selected, the Access Point uses the value
defined in the Sec. box (default is 30 seconds). Selecting Disabled allows the LAN to use the Ethernet
port for an indefinite timeout period. Select the Hardware Detect option to use the physical LAN port
to detect activity. If the LAN port does not detect a physical connection, the radio is unavailable to
the Access Point.
4 Refer to the 802.1x Port Authentication field if using port authentication over the Access Point's LAN
port.
The Access Point only supports 802.1x authentication over its LAN port. The Access Point behaves
as an 802.1x supplicant to authenticate to a server on the network. If using 802.1x authentication,
enter the authentication server user name and password. The default password is "admin123." For
information on enabling and configuring authentication schemes on the Access Point, see
Authentication and Encryption Schemes" on page
5 Use the Port Settings field to define how the Access Point manages throughput over the LAN port.

Altitude 4700 Series Access Point Product Reference Guide
Click the WLAN Mapping button to launch the VLAN
Configuration screen to map existing WLANs to one of the
two LANs and define the WLAN's VLAN membership (up
to 16 mappings are possible per Access Point).
Select the Auto Negotiation checkbox to enable the
Access Point to automatically exchange information (over
its LAN port) about data transmission speed and duplex
capabilities.
Auto negotiation is helpful when using the Access Point in
an environment where different devices are connected and
disconnected on a regular basis.
Selecting Auto Negotiate disables the Mbps and duplex
checkbox options.
Select this option to establish a 1000 Mbps data transfer
rate for the selected half duplex or full duplex transmission
over the Access Point's LAN port. This option is not
available if Auto Negotiation is selected.
Select this option to establish a 100 Mbps data transfer
rate for the selected half duplex or full duplex transmission
over the Access Point's LAN port. This option is not
available if Auto Negotiation is selected.
Select this option to establish a 10 Mbps data transfer rate
for the selected half duplex or full duplex transmission over
the Access Point's LAN port. This option is not available if
Auto Negotiation is selected.
Select this option to transmit data to and from the Access
Point, but not at the same time. Using a half duplex
transmission, the Access Point can send data over its LAN
port then immediately receive data from the same direction
in which the data was transmitted. Like a full-duplex
transmission, a half-duplex transmission can carry data in
both directions, just not at the same time.
Select this option to transmit data to and from the Access
Point at the same time. Using full duplex, the Access Point
can send data over its LAN port while receiving data as
well.
