Configuration mode (admin class)
Explanation
Sets the type of media to be used by the Ethernet port.
Caution
•
If auto is selected and cables are connected to 10/100/1000BASE-T ports as well as to
SFP ports, the SFP ports will be selected.
•
Similarly, with the auto setting, if 10/100/1000BASE-T port(s) are in a link up state and
SFP slot(s) are put into a link up state by connecting a cable to them, operation
changes to the SFP slot(s) and the 10/100/1000BASE-T port(s) change to a link down
state.
•
Use the fiber setting if using the 100BASE-FX module.
(The 100BASE-FX module cannot be used with the auto setting.)
Default
If unset, automatic selection of media type will be the default.
