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

2.Use the SPACE bar to select 100Base-FXor 100Base-FXFD(full duplex).

3.Press ENTER. The port now operates in the chosen mode.

5.14.3 Configuring an FE-100TX in Port 1 or 2

In normal operation, a port (1 or 2) 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 5.14.4 and Section 5.14.5 provide instructions for manually configuring the port with an FE-100TX installed.

5.14.4 Setting the FE-100TX Desired 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.

2.Use the SPACE bar to select the desired mode. Press ENTER. If any mode other than Auto-Negotiation is selected, the port only operates in the chosen mode and Auto-Negotiation is disabled.

3.Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command. Press ENTER. The message “SAVED OK” displays and Local Management saves the changes to memory. The selected mode is displayed in both the Desired Operational Mode field and the Current Operational Mode field.
