Once the switch has started successfully, installation is complete and
the switch is using its default setting (also known as default configu-
ration):
All ports are enabled.
•
• All ports operate in auto-negotiation mode.
Spanning Tree is disabled on all ports.
•
Addresses that have been silent for more than 15 minutes are
•
purged from the switch's address table (the MAC Address Aging
time).
No access restrictions to Local Management (Telnet).
•
• No SNMP restrictions.
No permanent MAC address entries defined. A permanent entry
•
is a MAC address that is defined as being permitted only on a
certain port. This can be a useful security feature.
All ports are in the same VLAN (named <System>) and VLAN
•
mode (Stand-alone mode). VLANs allow you to create virtual
networks using specific switch ports, IP addresses, IP subnets
and MAC addresses.
Flow Control is enabled on all ports.
•
The connection with Local Management is timed-out after 10
•
minutes if there has been no input during this period.
This default configuration is adequate for simple workgroup environ-
ments to operate in basic switching mode.
Although the switch continues to operate without problems, we rec-
ommend that you change certain parameters to suit your own require-
ments.

Collision detected (with half duplex).
