The Ethernet ports of the S3100 series switches have the following characteristics:
z
The 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet ports support MDI/MDI-X autosensing. By manual
configuration or autonegotiation, they can operate in 100 Mbps
half-duplex/full-duplex or 10 Mbps half-duplex/full-duplex.
z
The 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports support manual MDI/MDI-X configuration.
By manual configuration or autonegotiation, they can operate in 1000 Mbps
full-duplex, 100 Mbps half-duplex/full-duplex and 10 Mbps half-duplex/full-duplex.
1.1.2 Link Types of Ethernet Ports
An Ethernet port of the S3100 switch can operate in three different link types:
z
Access: An access port can belong to only one VLAN, and is generally used to
connect user PCs.
