Figure 5-14 Port Channels - Basic Configuration tab
Enter a brief description for the port channel (64 characters maximum). The description
should reflect the port channel's intended function.
Select the Enabled radio button to define this port channel as active to the controller
profile it supports. Select the Disabled radio button to disable this port channel
configuration within the profile. It can be activated at any future time when needed. The
default setting is disabled.
Select the speed at which the port channel can receive and transmit the data. Select
either 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1000 Mbps. Select either of these options to establish a 10,
100 or 1000 Mbps data transfer rate for the selected half duplex or full duplex
transmission over the port. These options are not available if Auto is selected. Select
Automatic to enable the port channel to automatically exchange information about data
transmission speed and duplex capabilities. Auto negotiation is helpful when in an
environment where different devices are connected and disconnected on a regular basis.
Automatic is the default setting.
Select either Half, Full or Automatic as the duplex option. Select Half duplex to send data
over the port channel, then immediately receive data from the same direction in which the
data was transmitted. Like a Full duplex transmission, a Half duplex transmission can
carry data in both directions, just not at the same time. Select Full duplex to transmit data
to and from the port channel at the same time. Using Full duplex, the port channel can
send data while receiving data as well. Select Automatic to enable to the access point to
dynamically duplex as port channel performance needs dictate. Automatic is the default
setting.
