5.19.1 Conﬁguring an FE-100TX Interface

Chapter 5: Local Management

NOTE

In normal operation, the port with an FE-100TX installed automatically establishes a link with the device at the other end of the segment without requiring user setup. However, Local Management provides the user with the option of manually conﬁguring that port.

Advertised Ability (Selectable)

During auto-negotiation, the FE-100TX “tells” the device at the other end of the segment what its capabilities are. The capabilities of a port with an FE-100TX installed, are 10BASE-T, 10BASE-TFD (full duplex mode), 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-TXFD (full duplex mode). In normal operation, with all capabilities enabled, the FE-100TX “advertises” that it has the ability to operate in any mode. The Network Manager may choose to set up the port so that only a portion of the available capabilities are advertised and the others are disabled. For example, only 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-TXFD might be enabled so that only devices that operate at 100 Mbps can communicate with that port. Section 5.19.3 describes how to enable or disable advertised modes.

5.19.1 Conﬁguring an FE-100TX Interface

In normal operation, a port with an FE-100TX interface automatically establishes a link with the device at the other end of the segment and no user setup is required. Section 5.19.2 and Section 5.19.3 provide instructions for manually conﬁguring the port with an FE-100TX installed.

5.19.2 Setting the FE-100TX Operational Mode

Use this ﬁeld to set the active technology. This ﬁeld steps between Auto-Negotiation, 10BASE-T, 10BASE-TFD (full duplex), 100BASE-TX, and 100BASE-TXFD (full duplex). If Auto-Negotiation is selected, the FE-100TX automatically sets the active technology. To manually set the active technology through Local Management, proceed as follows:

1.Use the arrow keys to highlight the Desired Oper. Mode field.
