❏Auto-negotiation

❏Broadcast ﬁltering

Conﬁguring Auto-Negotiation

Auto-negotiation allows two devices on a common segment to commu- nicate their capabilities, allowing the devices to determine their highest common speed and best communication parameters.

The options negotiated during auto-negotiation are: Ethernet type (100Base-TX or 10Base-T) and duplex mode (half or full).

▲Important: To use auto-negotiation, both devices must support the auto-negotiation feature.

To conﬁgure a port for auto-negotiation:

1 Click AutoNegotiate.

You do not have to select any particular port on the front- panel image.

The Port Auto-Negotiation table appears, similar to
