Configuring Ports
Configuration Expert lets you enable and disable ports as well as configure the following
characteristics:
• Operating mode (half-duplex or full-duplex).
In half-duplex mode, a port can transmit data in only one direction at a time between
two stations.
In full-duplex mode, a port can simultaneously send and receive data.
• Port speed (10-Mbps or 100-Mbps). This parameter applies only to ports on the
10/100 modules.
• Auto negotiation (for Gigabit Ethernet ports)
• Hash mode, which controls the distribution of flow entries in Layer-2 and Layer-3
lookup tables. (For more information on hash modes, see
“Configuring Global Settings
on All Ports” on page 51 .)
