You can arrange the port characteristics related to link operations. To
change settings for any parameter on this page, select the current value and
press the spacebar. This toggles between the available values for the
parameter.
For each port number listed under the Port column, you can change the
following parameters listed by column name on the screen:
• Admin — Allows the administrator to enable or disable the port.
• State — Displays this port is blocking and forwarding.
Rate/Duplex — Offers the choice of Full, Half, or Auto, which
•
automatically detects the value of the attached device and sets the
port duplex mode accordingly.
• Flow Ctrl — If enabled, stops the sender from sending data until the
receiver can accept it.
Comments — Allows the administrator to name the port or make
•
comments.
NOTE: This option only
provides for 3024 if 3048
and 3024 are mixed in a
stack. For the combo
gigabit ports in the stack,
you can choose the port
type. If you choose a
gigabit interface
converter (GBIC)
interface, you must switch
the port type from "GT"
to "GB" by pressing the
spacebar on the two
letters next to the port
number.
