The
1000M Full_Master
and
1000M Full_Slave
parameters refer to connections running
a 1000BASE-T cable for connection between the Switch port and other device capable
of a gigabit connection. The master
setting (
1000M Full_Master)
will allow the port to
advertise capabilities related to duplex, speed and physical layer type. The master
setting will also determine the master and slave relationship between the two connected
physical layers. This relationship is necessary for establishing the timing control between
the two physical layers. The timing control is set on a master
physical layer by a local
source. The slave
setting (
1000M Full_Slave)
uses loop timing, where the timing comes
from a data stream received from the master. If one connection is set for
1000M
Full_Master
, the other side of the connection must be set for
1000M Full_Slave
. Any
other configuration will result in a link down status for both ports.
Flow Control
Displays the flow control scheme used for the various port configurations. Ports
configured for full-duplex use 802.3x flow control, half-duplex ports use backpressure
flow control, and Auto ports use an automatic selection of the two. The default is
Disabled
.
Connection
Here the current connection speed will be displayed.
MDIX
Auto
- Select auto for auto sensing of the optimal type of cabling.
Normal
- Select normal for normal cabling. If set to normal state, the port is in MDI mode
and can be connected to a PC NIC using a straight-through cable or a port (in MDI
mode) on another switch through a cross-over cable.
Cross
- Select cross for cross cabling. If set to cross state, the port is in MDIX mode, and
can be connected to a port (in MDI mode) on another switch through a straight cable.
Address Learning
Enable or disable MAC address learning for the selected ports. When
Enabled
,
destination and source MAC addresses are automatically listed in the forwarding table.
When address learning is
Disabled
, MAC addresses must be manually entered into the
forwarding table. This is sometimes done for reasons of security or efficiency. See the
section on Forwarding/Filtering for information on entering MAC addresses into the
forwarding table. The default setting is
Enabled
.
Medium Type
If configuring the Combo ports, this defines the type of transport medium to be used.
