Parameter

Definition

 

 

Flow

Determines if IEEE 802.3z pause control is used on this

Control

port. The pause mechanism allows the port to stop a

Mode

sending station from sending more packets if the

 

receiving port’s buffers are full. This helps prevent lost

 

or dropped packets.

 

This feature is recommended for use primarily on end

 

station connections. Using this feature on trunk ports

 

can cause unnecessary congestion on the network.

 

 

Remote

Proprietary mechanism to detect remote link errors on

Fault

Cajun gigabit ports. The default value is Disabled.

Detect

The remote fault detection functionality should be

 

 

enabled (on both ends of a Cajun to Cajun link) in two

 

cases:

 

• When two Cajun gigabit ports are connected that

 

do not support auto-negotiation.

 

• When a Cajun gigabit port that does not support

 

auto-negotiation is connected to a Cajun gigabit

 

port that does support auto-negotiation.

 

 

PACE

PACE™ Priority Mode determines if the port

Priority

detects 3Com’s proprietary PACE format as

Mode

packets pass through the port. PACE enables a

 

packet’s priority to be set at the adapter. Higher

 

priority packets move through the switch before

 

lower packets. PACE Priority Mode is enabled by

 

default. To disable PACE Priority Mode, select

 

Disable from the PACE Priority Mode pull-down

 

menu.

 

 

3.In the Name field, enter a port name.

4.To configure an end-station port, a port located at the periphery of your network, from the Category pull-down menu, select User Port.

Or

To configure a trunk port, select Service Port.
