3.6.1 4-port Ethernet Switch
The RS123 router family incorporates a 4-port 10/100/1000 BaseT Switch with automatic MDI/MDIX to connect to a
local area network (LAN).
Please pay careful attention to the labeling so you do not mix this switch with other types of ports:

Note
During booting and in BIOS mode, only the ETH 1 connector is available.
3.6.2 WAN Connection
The RS123incorporates an Ethernet interface for WAN connection. This port has 2 connectors - SFP for optical link
and RJ45 for 10/100/1000 Base-T link - but they cannot work simultaneously.
Note
SFP connector is enabled by license. By default this connector is disabled.
This interface is totally independent from the Switch and is handled as just one more interface.
Please pay careful attention to the labeling to avoid confusing these ports with other port types:
