Function name:

Ports Configuration

Function description:

Ports Configuration is applied to change the setting of each port. In this configuration function, you can set/reset the following parameters, Mode and Flow Control. All of them are described in detail below.

Parameter description:

Mode:

Set the speed and duplex of the port. If the media is 1Gbps fiber, there are three modes to choose: Auto Speed, 1000 Full and Disable. If the media is TP, the Speed/Duplex is comprised of the combination of speed mode, 10/100/1000Mbps, and duplex mode, full duplex and half duplex. The following table summarized the function the media supports.

In Auto Speed mode, no default value. In Forced mode, default value depends on your setting.

Flow Control:

There are two modes to choose in flow control, including Enable and Disable. If flow control is set Enable, both parties can send PAUSE frame to the transmitting device(s) if the receiving port is too busy to handle. When it is set Disable, there will be no flow control in the port. It drops the packet if too much to handle. Default: Enable
