Port Statistics

You can check the status of any of the Router’s ports simply by clicking the port number on the port diagram. If the port is disabled, it will be red; if enabled, it will be black. If it is connected, it will be green.

This will open up a summary table. This summary table will show the port’s settings, such as Type, Link Status (up or down), Port Disable (on or off), Priority (High or Normal), Speed Status (10Mbps,100Mbps, or 1000Mbps), Duplex Status (half or full), Auto negotiation (enable or disable). The LAN ports can be configured from the LAN Setup page of the LAN Management Tab.
