disabled on trunked ports.
Configuring Ports
The same menu allows configuration of individual ports to turn off the auto-negotiation, flow-control, or full-duplex
transmission features. Attaching the console port to a PC or any VT100 compatible unit launches a main menu
screen that is displayed by hitting any key. The Escape key quits the program functions. The
[M]
command displays
the options for each port configuration. To change the mode, enter the port number, and then the number
representing a selection from the options list displayed on the screen. The list differs between the TX and FX ports.
Follow these steps to change the speed/duplex mode setting or to toggle flow control ON/OFF:
•
