Ethernet Interface Configuration

The following section briefly explains each field of the Ethernet Interface Configuration screen:

Port Num (Read-Only)

Displays the number of the front panel interface.

Port Type (Read-Only)

Displays the name of the interface installed in ports 1 through 16. All ports are identified as FE-100TX.

Link Status (Read-Only)

Indicates whether or not there is a physical connection from a particular port to another 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 100BASE-TXFD device. One of the following values is displayed:

Link – There is a link signal present and a valid physical connection to another 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 100BASE-TXFD device.

No Link – There is no link signal present and there is no valid physical connection to another device.

Current Oper. Mode (Read-only)

This field displays the current operating mode of a port. Depending on the connection negotiated, this field displays the following:

100Base-TX interface Auto-Neg, Unknown (if there is no Link), 10Base-T, 10Base-TFD (full duplex), 100Base-TX, or 100Base-TXFD (full duplex, ports 15 and 16 only).

Desired Oper. Mode (Selectable)

This field allows the user to select the desired operational mode for an interface.

FE-100TX Interface – The field steps between Auto-Neg, 10Base-T, 10Base-TFD (full duplex), 100Base-TX, and 100Base-TXFD (full duplex, ports 15 and 16 only). In normal operation, the port with an FE-100TX interface is capable of auto-negotiating the operational mode and no further user setup is required. For details on how to set the Operational Mode, refer to Section 5.19.2.

NOTE

In normal operation, ports 1 through 16 automatically establish 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.
