3.2.1LAN Port Settings
The OpenStage phone provides an integrated switch which connects the LAN, the phone itself and a PC port. By default, the switch will auto negotiate transfer rate (10/100 Mb/s, 1000 Mb/s with OpenStage 60/80 G) and duplex method (full or half duplex) with whatever equipment is connected. Optionally, the required transfer rate and duplex mode can be specified manually using the LAN port speed parameter.
>In the default configuration, the LAN port supports automatic detection of cable con - figuration (pass through or crossover cable) and will reconfigure itself as needed to connect to the network. If the phone is set up to manually configure the switch port settings, the cable detection mechanism is disabled. In this case, care must be taken to use the correct cable type.
The PC Ethernet port is controlled by the PC port mode parameter. If set to "Disabled", the PC port is inactive; if set to "Enabled", it is active. If set to "Mirror", the data traffic at the LAN port is mirrored at the PC port. This setting is for diagnostic purposes. If, for instance, a PC running Ethereal/Wireshark is connected to the PC port, all network activities at the phone’s LAN port can be captured.
When PC port autoMDIX is enabled, the switch determines automatically whether a regular MDI connector or a
