Port Status

The Port Status screen allows you to view the status of a port.. The Port, Enable, Link Status, Spd/Dpx, and Flow Control are displayed..

Port Status

Ports 1 through 24 are Ethernet RJ-45 ports and are all 10/100 ports.. Ports G3 and G4 are shared with the miniGBIC ports.. If there is a connection to one of the miniGBIC ports then the corresponding Gigabit RJ-45 port cannot be used..

Port Configuration

You can use the Port Configuration screen to enable/ disable an interface, set auto-negotiation and the interface capabilities to advertise, or manually fix the speed, duplex mode, and flow control..

Port Configuration

Enable  Allows you to manually enable or disable an interface.. You can disable an interface due to abnormal behavior (for example, excessive collisions), and then enable it again, once the problem has been resolved.. You may also disable an interface for security reasons..

Auto-negotiation (Port Capabilities)  This option enables or disables auto-negotiation.. When auto-negotiation is enabled, you need to specify the capabilities to be advertised.. When auto-negotiation is disabled, you can force the settings for speed, mode, and flow control.. The following capabilities are supported..

•10half  Supports 10 Mbps half-duplex operation

•10full  Supports 10 Mbps full-duplex operation

•100half  Supports 100 Mbps half-duplex operation

•100full  Supports 100 Mbps full-duplex operation
