2. Select the Runtime tab to display the following read-only information:

Name	Displays the ports current name.
MAC Address	Displays the port’s MAC Address. This value is read-only, set at the factory and cannot be
	modified.
Oper Status	Displays the operational status of the port. The port status can be either Up or Down.
Speed	Displays the current speed of the data transmitted and received over the port.
Duplex	Displays the port as either half or full duplex.
MTU	Displays the MTU setting configured on the port. MTU stands for maximum transmission
	unit. The MTU value represents the largest packet size that can be sent over a link. The MTU
	is determined by the underlying network, but must be taken into account at the IP level. IP
	packets (which can be up to 64K bytes each) must be packaged into lower-level packets of
	the appropriate size for the underlying network(s) and re-assembled on the other end. 10/
	100 Ethernet ports have a maximum MTU setting of 1500.
