Blocking ARB

When two ports start a communication session, the Blocking ARB is sent to all other ports trying to communicate with those ports until the connection is terminated. The default setting is "FF". If other connected devices use the "FF" setting for another purpose, select another Blocking ARB value (for example, "FB"). Under normal circumstances, this setting does not need to be modified.

Agent Up Time

The Agent Up Time field displays the duration of time that the switch has been operational. If the switch is rebooted or power is cycled, this value is reset.
