•Current Advertisement — The port advertises its speed to its neighbor port to start the negotiation process. The possible field values are those specified in the Admin Advertisement field.
•Neighbor Advertisement — Indicates the neighboring port’s advertisement settings. The field values are identical to the Admin Advertisement field values.
•Back Pressure — Back Pressure mode is used with Half Duplex mode to disable ports from receiving messages. Back Pressure is not supported in OOB ports.
–Enable — Enables Back Pressure mode on the port.
–Disable — Disables Back Pressure mode on the port.
•Current Back Pressure — The current Back Pressure setting.
•Flow Control — Indicates the flow control status on the port.
–Enable — Enables flow control on the port.
–Disable — Disables flow control on the port.
–
•Current Flow Control — The current Flow Control setting.
•MDI/MDIX — Allows the device to decipher between crossed and uncrossed cables. Hubs and switches are deliberately wired opposite the way end stations are wired, so that when a hub or switch is connected to an end station, a straight through Ethernet cable can be used, and the pairs are match up properly. When two hubs/switches are connected to each other, or two end stations are connected to each other, a crossover cable is used ensure that the correct pairs are connected. Auto MDIX does not operate on FE ports if auto negotiation is disabled. The possible field values are:
–Auto — Use to automatically detect the cable type.
–MDIX — Use for hubs and switches.
–MDI — Use for end stations.
•Current MDI/MDIX — Indicates the current device MDIX settings. The possible field values are:
–MDI — The current MDI setting is MDI.
–MDIX — The current MDI setting is MDIX.
•Private VLAN Edge (PVE)— Indicates the Private VLAN Edge (PVE) group to which the LAG is configured. A port defined as PVE is protected by an uplink, so that it is isolated from other ports within the same VLAN. The uplink must be a GE port.
•LAG — Specifies if the port is part of a LAG.
If port configuration is modified while the port is a LAG member, the configuration change is only effective after the port is removed from the LAG.
