3.6 Port configuration
3.6.1 Overview
The table for Port Configuration (Figure ) provides an overview of the current settings of the individual ports.
Additionally, you can configure the columns Enable, Transmission Rate, Flow Control and Description.
Some of the remaining boxes are updated when the port assignment is changed and the website
subsequently refreshed, and serve to provide a better overview.
