12.5.1
Querying Configuration and Status of the Switch Ports
The switch of the MoRoS LAN PRO 2.0 is configurable. This means that you can determine
for each switch port individually which transmission rate should be used or if it is sup-
posed to be operated in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. You may also control via the
web interface, to which switch port a cable is connected and if a physical connection ex-
ists.
Configuration with the web interface
You can
see the current configuration of the individual switch ports
in the
menu "Switch" on the page "Port configuration" next to the port list.
The coloured fields indicate
whether a cable is connected to the switch
. These
fields indicate the four switch ports. The boxes are green if there is a network
cable connected, and red if there is no cable connected or if no physical con-
nection exists to the network.
12.5.2
Configuring Switch Ports
You can determine, which switch port is operated with which transmission rate and if it
is operated in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. You can also determine if the auto nego-
tiation (the recognition of the network cabling) is available at each port. These settings
may be required if end devices have problems with the automatic recognition of the
connection parameters. You can determine how the events at the network and the states
of the switch ports are displayed at the switch port status LEDs.
Configuration with the web interface
In order to enable or disable the respective switch port, use in the menu
"Switch" on the page "Port configuration" the checkbox "active" of the respec-
tive switch port.
In order to enable or disable auto negotiation, use in the menu "Switch" on
the page "Port configuration" the checkbox "Auto negotiation" of the respec-
tive switch port.
In order to define the transmission rate of a switch port, use the radio buttons
"10 Mbit/s" and "100 Mbit/s".
To operate a switch port in full-duplex or half-duplex mode, use the radio but-
tons "Half-duplex" and "Full-duplex".
Save your settings
by clicking "OK".
