Port Status

On this page, users can view the switch's physical port status and settings. To view the following window,
click System > Port Configuration > Port Status, as shown below:
Select to either turn flow control On or Off here. Ports configured for
full-duplex use 802.3x flow control, half-duplex ports use back-
pressure flow control, and Auto ports use an automatic selection of the
two.
Select the duplex mode used here. Options to choose from are Auto,
Half, and Full.
Select the port speed option here. This option will manually force the
connected on the selected port to only connect at the speed specified
here. Options to choose from are Auto, 10M, 100M, 1000M, 1000M
Master, 1000M Slave, 10G, 10G Master, 10G Slave, and 40G. The
switch allows users to configure two types of gigabit connections;
1000M Master and 1000M Slave which refer to connections running a
1000BASE-T cable for connection between the switch port and
another device capable of a gigabit connection. The master setting
(1000M Master) will allow the port to advertise capabilities related to
duplex, speed and physical layer type. The master setting will also
determine the master and slave relationship between the two
connected physical layers. This relationship is necessary for
establishing the timing control between the two physical layers. The
timing control is set on a master physical layer by a local source. The
slave setting (1000M Slave) uses loop timing, where the timing comes
from a data stream received from the master. If one connection is set
for 1000M Master, the other side of the connection must be set for
1000M Slave. Any other configuration will result in a link down status
for both ports.
Note: The 10M and 100M speed options are only applicable when the
DXS-3600-EM-8T expansion module is used.
When the Speed is set to Auto, these capabilities are advertised
during auto-negotiation.
