Configuring and Managing the Switch

NOTE

Setting a port to full duplex automatically disables flow control. Since collisions don’t happen on a full-duplex link, flow control isn’t needed.

Console Manager command groups

The Console Manager has several categories of commands:

•Console commands: help, banner, serial line setup, console parameters setup.

•System commands: system status, reset commands, download commands, and system debug commands.

•IP commands: IP address setup, parameter and information display.

•SNMP agent commands: SNMP settings, management, and trap options.

•Switching database commands: aging time management and switching database entry management.

•Spanning tree commands: disabling or manually configuring the spanning tree protocol.

•VLAN commands: management of security virtual LANs.

•Port configuration commands: duplex and other port settings.

•Switching statistics commands: traffic and packet counters.

The following sections explain some of the more commonly used commands for configuring ports and monitoring traffic statistics.

Configuring a port for full duplex

Commands used

set-port-dplexSets the duplex mode on the specified port.

get-port-cfgDisplays the current port configurations.

Configuring a port for full duplex allows the switch to send and receive packets simultaneously with the destination device. To establish a full-duplex link, both the switch and the destination device must be configured for full duplex.

Additionally, the link must be to a switch, workstation, or server. You cannot establish a full-duplex link to a device that broadcasts incoming packets to every port on the device. This excludes most shared hubs, repeaters, or concentrators.
