54 CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURING THE SWITCH
Detail
Use the Detail tab to display detailed port
setting information for a port.
Figure 38 Port Administration Detail Screen
Setup
Use the Setup tab to configure the port
settings. The following options are available:
■ Port State – Enables and disables the port.
■ Flow Control – Enables and disables flow
control on the port. When flow control is
enabled for the port, the Switch regulates
the packet flow so that a sending device
does not transmit more packets than a
receiving device can process. If flow control
is disabled, packets may be dropped under
certain periods of high traffic.
Flow control is disabled by default.
■ Speed – Sets the speed mode of the port.
Available options include auto, 10, 100, and
1000. For 1000 Mbps connections, see
“Speed/Duplex for 1000 Mbps
Connections” below.
Auto (or autonegotiation) sets the optimum
combination of speed and duplex that can
be supported by both ends of the link.
■ Duplex – Sets the duplex mode of the port.
Available options include auto, half, and full.
CAUTION: It is advised not to enable Flow
Control on ports that will be connected to
telephony and other time sensitive traffic as it
may hamper the QoS performance.
