Host Limit
Specify the maximum allowable host (as PC) number attached on this EP:
0
:
Service is disabled, none host is allowed
1~11
: The factory default value is 5.
Master/EP Ethernet Properties
The Ethernet properties of Master device and EP device are configurable.
Port Setup
To configure built-in Ethernet port properties, include speed, flow control, and maximum Down/Up rate (bandwidth
control) of port LAN1/LAN2/HCNA.
Service and Speed/Duplex
Change ‗
Service
‘ to On (enable) or Off (disable) per port. This setting open or close the related port in EP. And
default setting in field ‗
Speed/Duplex
‘ is ‗
Auto
‘ states for auto-negotiation.
Bandwidth Control per Port
Limit the maximum allowable
downstream
/
upstream
bandwidth of Master/EP. This is hardware based bandwidth
control to throttle traffic.
Consider port HCNA as the network backbone and refer the following diagram to set up per port bandwidth control
parameters in Master/EP.
DownRate
states for downstream rate from Master to EP, and
UpRate
is the upstream
rate from EP to Master. The maximum allowed rate should be the setting value multiplied by 64Kbps. If maximum
rate exceeds 100Mbps (as the value
1563
) at EP or exceeds 200Mbps (as the value
3125
) at Master, there will be no
bandwidth control at all.
Bandwidth Control per EP
EP HCNA port is the main entrance toward the coax trunk. By throttling only the EP HCNA port, the Up/Down
bandwidth per EP is controlled.
