Configuring Port Parameters 

Use the Port Configuration menu to display or set communication parameters for any port on the 
switch, including link status, administrative status, auto-negotiation, communication speed and 
duplex mode, as well as flow control in use.

Default

Description

Link Status

Indicates if the port has a valid connection to an external device.

Admin Status

Enabled

Allows you to disable a port due to abnormal behavior (e.g., excessive 

collisions), and then re-enable it after the problem has been resolved. 

You may also disable a port for security reasons. 

Type Config

Auto-Nego Enables auto-negotiation for speed and duplex mode or manually sets 

these parameters. The manual settings available are: 
10HDX: 

10 Mbps, half duplex

10FDX:

10 Mbps, full duplex

100TX-HDX:

100 Mbps, half duplex 

100TX-FDX:

100 Mbps, full duplex

1GB FDX:

1 Gbps, full duplex

Current Type

Indicates the current speed and duplex mode.

Flow Control

Off

Used to enable or disable flow control. Flow control can eliminate frame 

loss by “blocking” traffic from end stations or segments connected 

directly to the switch when its buffers fill. When enabled, back pressure 

is used for half duplex, and IEEE 802.3x for full duplex. Note that flow 

control should not be used if a port is connected to a hub. The options 

for flow control are set out below:

Switch Link 

Partner

Flow 

Control

Rcv/BothWay SendOnly

Switch can only receive pause frames, 

link partner can only send pause 

frames.

Rcv/BothWay BothWay

Both switch and link partner can

send and receive pause frames. 

Flow Control 

Status

Displays current flow control status.
