Figure 3-10: Port Configuration Page
State:
Either “Enable” or “Disable” the port, allowing traffic to pass through it or not. Default: Enable.
Mode:
Sets the speed and duplex of the port. If the connection is 1Gbps, the speed is always 1000Mbps
and the duplex is full only. If the media is 10/100Mbps copper, the Speed/Duplex is comprised of a
combination of speed (10 or 100Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex). Mode can also be
set to auto-negotiation (Auto) mode.
Flow Control:
Either set to “Enable” or “Disable”. If flow control is set Enable, both parties can send
PAUSE frames to the transmitting device(s) if the receiving port is too busy to handle it. When it is set
Disable, there will be no flow control in the port. It drops the packet if there is too much traffic to handle.
Default: Enable.
Wait State:
For more details about this parameter please refer to section 3.2.1. Default: Disable.
