when managed switches are used with the QoS function.
3.1.1 Port Configuration
Port Separation
Your device makes it possible to run the switch ports as one interface or to logically sep-
arate 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 sever-
al 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 together.
The menu Physical Interfaces->Ethernet Ports->Port Configuration consists of the fol-

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 five interfaces,
