Configuring Port Parameters

Use the Port Configuration menus to set or display communication parameters for any port or module on the switch.

		Figure 2-20. Port Configuration
Parameter		Default		Description
Type				Shows port type as:
				10/100TX : 10Base-T / 100Base-TX
				100FX	: 100Base-FX
				1000SX : 1000Base-SX
				1000LX : 1000Base-LX
Admin		ENABLED		Allows you to disable a port due to abnormal
				behavior (e.g., excessive collisions), and then re-
				enable it after the problem has been resolved.
				You may also disable a port for security reasons.
Flow Control		DISABLED		Used to enable or disable flow control. Flow
				control can eliminate frame loss by “blocking”
				traffic from end stations or segments connected
				directly to the switch when its buffers fill. Back
				pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE 802.3x
				for full duplex. Note that flow control should not be
				used if a port is connected to a hub.
Speed and Duplex		AUTO		Used to set the current port speed, duplex mode,
				and auto-negotiation. (Auto-negotiation is not
				available for 100Base-FX ports.)
