Port Description
The Switch supports a port description feature
where the user may name various ports on the
Switch. To assign names to various ports, click
Administration > Port Configuration > Port
Description to view the following window:
Use the From and To pull-down menu to choose a
port or range of ports to describe, and then enter a
description of the port(s). Click Apply to set the
descriptions in the Port Description Table.
The Medium Type applies only to the Combo
ports. If configuring the Combo ports this defines
the type of tranport medium being configured. SFP
ports should be nominated Fiber and the Combo
1000BASE-T ports should be nominated Copper.
The result will be displayed in the appropriate
switch port number slot (C for copper ports and F
for fiber ports).
