Option
Description
Jumbo Frame (9K)
Enable this function for Jumbo Frame packet (9K) transmitting.
Link Transparent
To enable Remote Fault Detect and Link Loss Carry Forward functions, select
this option.
Remote Fault Detect
When enabled, the fiber port will be able to receive OAM packets. The media
converter will set local RJ-45 port link up/down according to the remote media
converter’s RJ-45 port’s link status.
NOTE: The Link Transparent function must be enabled for Remote Fault Detect
to take effect.
Link Loss Carry Forward
When enabled, the fiber port link will be down when the RJ-45 port link is
down, and the fiber port will resume connection when the RJ-45 port’s
connection is back on.
NOTE: The Link Transparent function must be enabled for Link Loss Carry
Forward to take effect.
Forward CRC Error Frame
Packets with CRC error will still be transmitted if this function is enabled. If this
function is disabled, packets with CRC error will be dropped instead.
Forward Pause Frame
The media converter will forward pause frames and regard them as normal
packets if this function is enabled.
Management Packet High Priority
QoS will be enabled if this function is enabled. Four queues will be enabled,
and queue 3’s priority will be set to “strict.” All management packets, such as
802.3ah OAM, SNMP packets will be in queue 3 to guarantee bandwidth.
Broadcast Storm Filter, Multicast Storm Filter,
Unknown DA Unicast Storm Filter
When too many broadcast/multicast/unknown DA unicast packets arrive in a
period time, the media converter will drop these packets if this function is
enabled.
