Setting the Duplex Mode

You set an interface to use or not use Full Duplex Switched Ethernet by turning the Full Duplex capability ON or OFF from this window.

To turn the Full Duplex mode ON or OFF:

1.In the Duplex Modes window highlight the interface you want to change.

2.Double-click on the highlighted interface. The interface list will be brieﬂy grayed-out as the set is being made to the device.

If the set is successful, the interface list will re-activate and the Full Duplex: indicator will switch from ON to OFF or OFF to ON.

If you attempt to set an interface to Full Duplex Mode that does not support this feature, you will receive a “Set Failed” error message.

Click on Cancel to close the window.

NOTE

Because Full Duplex conﬁguration takes place as you set each change individually, any changes that have been completed up to the point of clicking Cancel will have been set at the device. Make sure that you have undone any unwanted changes before exiting the window.
