8.1.1 Port Configuration
Port Separation
Your device makes it possible to run the switch ports as one interface or to logically separ-
ate these from each other and to configure them as independent Ethernet interfaces.
During configuration, please note the following: The splitting of the switch ports into several
Ethernet interfaces merely logically separates these from each other. The available total
bandwidth of max. 1000 mbps full duplex for all resulting interfaces remains the same. For
example, if you split all the switch ports from each other, each of the resulting interfaces
only uses a part of the total bandwidth. If you group together several switch ports into one
interface, the full bandwidth of max. 1000 mbps full duplex is available for all the ports to-
gether.
The menu Physical Interfaces->Ethernet Ports->Port Configuration consists of the fol-
lowing fields:

Field
Description
Switch Port
Shows the respective switch port. The numbering corresponds
to the numbering of the Ethernet ports on the back of the
device.
Ethernet Interface Se-
lection
Assign a logical Ethernet interface to the switch port.
You can select from four interfaces,
to
. In the
basic setting, switch port 1 - 4 has the
interface as-
signed to it.
Configured Speed /
Mode
Select the mode in which the interface is to run.
