100 Mbps, Half Duplex. - This option allows the VPNmanager to configure the security gateway’s Ethernet port speed to 100 Mbps in half duplex mode. In half duplex mode, the Ethernet port is capable of sending or receiving packets over the network at 100 Mbps.

10 Mbps, Full Duplex. - This option allows the VPNmanager to configure the security gateway’s Ethernet port speed to 10 Mbps in full duplex mode. In full duplex mode, the Ethernet port is capable of sending and receiving packets simultaneously over the network at 10 Mbps.

10 Mbps, Half Duplex. - This option allows the VPNmanager to configure the security gateway’s Ethernet port speed to 10 Mbps in half duplex mode. In half duplex mode, the Ethernet port is capable of sending or receiving packets over the network at 10 Mbps.

Redundancy

This button only appears when a VSU-1200/7500 is the selected device.

This screen appears when the Redundancy button on the security gateway Action tab is clicked. It is used to set up specific redundancy attributes when two VSU-1200/7500s are being used to backup each other.

This function also allows you to check the status of the redundant systems in the VSU-1200/ 7500, and allows you to manually switch over the active Ethernet ports from the primary to secondary ports or vice versa. This switch-over function can be performed for both ports on a single card or for an individual active port.

Network Interface Status

Card 1, Card 2 - Shows the current status of the public and private Ethernet ports located on the primary and secondary Ethernet interface cards. The port names are shown next to three icons indicating the current port status. The first box indicates whether the port is on, off, or defective. The second box indicates if the port is connected and at what speed its operating (100 or 10 megabits per second), and the last box indicates Full or Half duplex.

Fan/Power Status - Indicates the power supply fan status. The Fan/Power Status section shows the current state of the redundant cooling fans and power supply modules. If a fan or power supply modules fails, a FAILED status is displayed indicating which component failed. Refer to the VSU-1200 User Guide for instructions on how to replace the failed component.
