●
MAC Address
Shows the MAC address of the port.
●
"Mode Type" drop-down list
Note
The parameter cannot be configured on the SCALANCE W786-2 SFP.
Select the transmission speed and the transmission method of the port from this drop-
down list. The transmission speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. As the
transmission mode, you can configure full duplex (FD) or half duplex (HD). If you set the
mode to "Auto negotiation", these parameters are automatically negotiated with the
connected end device. This must also be in the "Autonegotiation" mode.
Note
Before the port and partner port can communicate with each other, the settings must
match at both ends.
Note
If 10 Mbps is configured as the transmission speed or half duplex (HD) as the
transmission mode, this can lead to restrictions in PNIO communication. Always select at
least 100 Mbps and full duplex (FD) or "Autonegotiation" if you want the device to handle
PNIO communication.
●

–

–
