Port Configuration
You can manually configure the speed, duplex mode, and flow control used on specific ports, or use auto-
negotiation to detect the connection settings used by the attached device. Use the full-duplex mode on ports
whenever possible to double the throughput of switch connections. Flow control should also be enabled to
control network traffic during periods of congestion and prevent the loss of packets when port buffer thresholds
are exceeded. The switch supports flow control based on the IEEE 802.3x standard.
This screen displays the current connection status, including link state, speed/duplex mode, flow control, and
auto-negotiation.
The Port Configuration screen displays the following information for each port on the switch.
Name. Enter a name for the port, up to 64 characters long.
Port Type. Indicates the port type. (100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T, or SFP)
Admin Status. Shows if the interface is enabled or disabled.
Operating Status. Indicates if the link is Up or Down.
Speed Duplex. Shows the current speed and duplex mode. (Auto, or a fixed choice)
