Console Program Essentials
Parameters in this screen are described in the following paragraphs.
Port Name:
Enter a unique name for the selected port, up to
15
alphanumeric characters
.
This name is used for reference purposes.
Port Type:
This view-only field shows the type of port currently selected,
either 100Base-TX or 100Base-FX.
Port Link State:
This view-only field shows the current status of the link,
Down or Up, between the selected port and the connected node.
Port Full Duplex:
This field is a choice field when auto-negotiation is
disabled, and a view-only field when auto-negotiation is enabled. When
auto-negotiation is disabled, use this field to enable or disable full duplex
mode for the port. Full duplex transmissions effectively double your
bandwidth by carrying out transmission and receipt of packets at the same
time. To make full duplex mode work properly, both ends of the link
should be configured to full duplex mode
Port Speed:
Use this field to specify the speed of the Fast Ethernet port in
the bridge. Port speed can be either 100Mbps or 10Mbps depending on
auto-negotiation.
Port Auto-Negotiation:
Use this field to enable or disable auto-
negotiation. Auto-negotiation decides the port speed and duplex mode of
the port on link-up.
