Port Configuration

Use the Port Configuration menus to configure any port on the switch.

Parameter

Default

Description

Flow Control Mode

Enabled

Allows you to enable or disable flow control for all

 

 

ports on the switch.

Admin Status

Enable

Allows you to disable a port due to abnormal

 

 

behavior (e.g., excessive collisions), and then re-

 

 

enable it after the problem has been resolved.

 

 

You may also disable a port for security reasons.

Duplex Status

Auto-

Used to set the current port duplex mode or auto-

 

Negotiation

negotiation. The default is auto-negotiation.

Flow Control status

Enabled

Used to enable or disable flow control. Flow

 

 

control can eliminate frame loss by “blocking”

 

 

traffic from end stations or segments connected

 

 

directly to the switch when its buffers fill. Back

 

 

pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE 802.3x

 

 

for full duplex. Note that flow control should not be

 

 

used if a port is connected to a hub.

802.1Q Trunk Status

Disabled

Used to enable/disable the VLAN trunk status for

 

 

the port. A VLAN Trunk link between two VLAN-

 

 

aware switches will carry traffic from all VLANs,

 

 

allowing VLAN tagged frames to maintain their

 

 

VLAN ID across multiple switches. When

 

 

enabled, a port joins all configured VLANs and the

 

 

untagged port VLAN ID (PVID) is set to 4000, a

 

 

reserved VLAN ID for trunk ports.
