7.7 Port Setup

Full-duplex mode operation only applies to point-to-point access (for example, when attaching the switch to a workstation, server, or another switch). When connecting to hubs, use a standard cascaded connection set at half-duplex operation.

Auto-negotiation regulates the speed and duplex of each port, based on the capability of both devices. When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port on the ZyXEL switch negotiates with the peer automatically to determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the ZyXEL switch determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half duplex mode. When the ZyXEL switch’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet port uses the preconfigured speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.

Use this screen to configure switch port settings. Click Basic Setting and then Port Setup in the navigation panel to enter the port configuration screen.
