Port Status
The port status function gathers the current status for all ports. The information is displayed by
the order of port number, link status, port state, auto-negotiation status, speed/duplex and flow
control. If a fiber module is installed in one or both of the slots, the current status for those ports
will be displayed. See Figure 5.10

Function Description:
Port status reports the current status of all ports in the switch. The screen will be automatically
refreshed approximately every five seconds as port parameters change.
Parameter Description:

Port No.:
Displays the port number. The number is 1 -26. Both Port 25 and 26 are optional modules.

Shows the media type used in all ports. Ports 25-26 are optional modules, which support either
