Ports
This page displays curent port configurations. Ports can also be configured here.
Object
Description
Port
This is the logical port number for this row.
Description
The description of the port. It is an ASCII string no longer than 256 characters.
Link
The current link state is displayed graphically. Green indicates the link is up and red that it is
down.
Current Link Speed
Provides the current link speed of the port.
Configured Link
Speed
Selects any available link speed for the given switch port. Only speeds supported by the
specific ports are shown. Possible speeds are:
Disabled - Disables the switch port operation.
Auto - Port auto negotiating speed with the link partner and selects the highest speed that is
compatible with the link partner.
10Mbps HDX - Forces the cu port in 10Mbps half duplex mode.
10Mbps FDX - Forces the cu port in 10Mbps full duplex mode.
100Mbps HDX - Forces the cu port in 100Mbps half duplex mode.
100Mbps FDX - Forces the cu port in 100Mbps full duplex mode.
1Gbps FDX - Forces the port in 1Gbps full duplex.
2.5Gbps FDX - Forces the port in 2.5Gbps full duplex mode.
Advertise Duplex
When duplex is set as auto i.e auto negotiation, the port will only advertise the specified
duplex as either Fdx or Hdx to the link partner. By default port will advertise all the supported
duplexes if the Duplex is Auto.
Advertise Speed
When Speed is set as auto i.e auto negotiation, the port will only advertise the specified
speeds (10M 100M 1G) to the link partner. By default port will advertise all the supported
speeds if speed is set as Auto.
Flow Control
When Auto Speed is selected on a port, this section indicates the flow control capability that
is advertised to the link partner.
When a fixed-speed setting is selected, that is what is used. The Current Rx column indicates
whether pause frames on the port are obeyed, and the Current Tx column indicates whether
pause frames on the port are transmitted. The Rx and Tx settings are determined by the result
of the last Auto-Negotiation.
Check the configured column to use flow control. This setting is related to the setting for
Configured Link Speed.
Maximum Frame Size Enter the maximum frame size allowed for the switch port, including FCS.
Excessive Collision
Mode
Configure port transmit collision behavior.
Discard: Discard frame after 16 collisions (default).
Restart: Restart back off algorithm after 16 collisions.
