conditions of high network traffic. Transmit pacing reduces the
switch’s CPU utilization, reduces the number of retransmissions
and reduces collision rates, which improves the switches overall
performance under high traffic conditions.
•
Accept Unknown Unicast Pkts
Enables or disables the
acceptance of unknown unicast packets. If enabled, the
unknown unicast packets are sent to the device connected to the
port, if disabled, they are not sent.
•
Default VLAN ID
Specifies the default VLAN ID. The range
can be from 1 to 4094. In the IEEE 802.1q standard, this is the
PVID.
•
IEEE 802.1q Connection Type
Specifies the IEEE 802.1q
connection type. The settings are:
§
Access
Configures the port as an access link. An access
link is a LAN segment that allows the multiplexing of one
or more VLAN unaware devices into a port of a VLAN
bridge.
§
Hybrid
Configures the port as a hybrid link. A hybrid link
allows VLAN unaware end stations to be added to a trunk
link.
•
Long Frame Handling
Enables or disables long frames to
pass through the switch. Priority, VLAN, or tagged frames may
require long frame handling. If this function is not enabled, long
frames will be considered oversized and discarded. When
enabled, the long packets will be included in the 1024-1518
octets packet size statistic.
Note: Once a port is configured, select SAVE and press Enter
before configuring the next port.
