Full Duplex Configuration Screen Fields
PORT #
(Read-only) - Displays the numbers for each of the Ethernet ports.

(Modifiable) - This field lets you determine whether the
specified port will transmit and receive data separately or simultaneously. You can set
this field to one of the following values:
•
STANDARD ENET - The port can either transmit data or receive data, but not both
at the same time. Therefore, the port is running at 10 Mbps (this is the default).
•
FULL DUPLEX - The port can transmit and receive data at the same time.
Therefore, the port is running at 20 Mbps.
