3.2 Port Setup

The middle part of previous figure shows all port status of the connected switch. The right side shows port configuration setup page.

Port Status

Port Status page displays the current port status. The status are:

Port	Port number (FX : FX port)
Link	Port link status, Up = link up, Down = link down
Speed	Port speed, 100M = 100Mbps, 10M = 10Mbps
Duplex	Duplex mode used, Full = full-duplex, Half = half-duplex
Flow Control	Flow control status, enabled, disabled

Note:

The switch is featured with flow control enabled for all ports. However, the flow control may be disabled after auto negotiation with the con- nected device, if the connected device does not have flow control ability.

Port Setup

This page is used to set the port configuration for each port. As auto- negotiation function is enabled, speed and duplex settings specify the highest port ability for negotiation process between the switch and the auto-negotiation capable link partner. When auto-negotiation function is disabled, speed and duplex settings specify the forced port configura- tion for the connection. Setup options are:

Auto-negotiation	Enabled, disabled
Speed	100M = 100Mbps, 10M = 10Mbps
Duplex	Full = full-duplex, Half = half-duplex

It is recommended to set auto-negotiation enabled in most of cases and set it disabled only when connecting to an auto-negotiation incapable full-duplex device.
