High Speed Interface Configuration Screen (DLE28-MA Only)
DLE28-MA User’s Guide

Current Oper. Mode (Read-only)
This field displays the current operating mode of ports 25 and 26.
Depending on the interface installed (100BASE-FX or 100BASE-TX)
this field displays the following:
•
With a 100BASE-FX interface: 100Base-FX or 100Base-FXFD (full
duplex), or N/A when the port slot is empty.
•
With a 100BASE-TX interface: Unknown, 10Base-T, 10Base-TFD
(full duplex), 100Base-TX, or 100Base-TXFD (full duplex).
Desired Oper. Mode (Selectable)
This field allows the user to select the desired operational mode for an
interface in port 25 or 26. The field toggles between 100BASE-FX and
100BASE-FXFD (full duplex) when a DELFX-UI or DELF3-UI is
installed. Section 5.23.1 describes how to configure a port with a
DELFX-UI or DELF3-UI.
If a DELTX-UI is installed, the field steps to Auto-Negotiation,
10BASE-T, 10BASE-TFD (full duplex), 100BASE-TX, and
100BASE-TXFD (full duplex). In normal operation, the port with a
DELTX-UI installed is capable of auto-negotiating the operational mode
and no further user setup is required. Section 5.23.3 describes how to
configure a DELTX-UI.
In normal operation, the port with an DELTX-UI installed
automatically establishes a link with the device at the other end
of the segment without requiring user setup. However, Local
Management provides the user with the option of manually
configuring that port.
