The NET MGMT port has a standard RJ-45 8-pin connector and operates
at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps in either half- or full-duplex mode. The cable
requirements for this port are the same as the ports on the AT-
SBx81GT24 Line Card, given in Table 1 on page 33. For the port pinouts,
refer to “Port Pinouts” on page 239.
The default setting for the port is Auto-Negotiation, which sets the speed
and duplex mode automatically. You may disable Auto-Negotiation and
configure the port manually. The port is referred to as ETH0 in the
management software.
