Controlling Individual Ports

The Port Configuration Menu, accessible from the Network Monitoring menu, allows you to view the status of individual ports and to control their settings. The available settings are:

Port Determines which port is displayed.

Port State This toggle determines whether the port should be enabled or disabled (manually partitioned). Setting the Port State to Disabled will isolate the port from the rest of the network.

Port Status Shows whether or not there is a good link to a station connected to the port.

Auto Negotiation Determines whether or not the NWay automatic speed detection feature is enabled for the port.

Media Speed (100/10Mbps) Displays the transmission speed of the selected port, either 100 (Ports 1 through 4, 100BASE-TX) or 10 (Ports 5 through 12, 10BASE-T).

Duplex Mode Shows whether the port is operating in half-duplex or full-duplex mode.
