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
