modify the configuration.

3.4 Hardware
Description
Front Panel
The front panel of the switch consists of eight auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ45 (Ports
5-8 PoE ports) ports, one mini GBIC slot and one 10/100/1000Base-TX port. The ninth
10/100/1000Base-TX port shares the slot with the mini GBIC. So, if the GBIC is used,
the ninth 10/100/1000Bse-TX port is inactive. Therefore, the switch provides nine
usable ports. You have the choice of using the ninth port in copper or fiber. The LED
indicators are also located on the front panel of the switch.
The console connection is also on the front panel of the switch. The console port can
be used to perform management functions. Console connection requires a direct
connection between the switch and a workstation with a RS-232 cable.
