Description
Shows if the port is enabled or not.
Indicates if the port has a valid connection to an
external device.
Shows the port speed (10M, 100M or 1000M).
Displays the current duplex mode.
Shows the flow control type in use. Flow control can
eliminate frame loss by "blocking" traffic from end
stations connected directly to the switch. Back
pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE 802.3x for
full duplex. Note that flow control should not be used
if a port is connected to a hub.
