4. The following fields are displayed:
Interface— Indicates the port ID.
Type— Indicates the transmission speed and medium, copper or
fiber optic, of the port. For example, 1000Base-SX indicates that
the port is a fiber optic gigabit standard.
Status— Indicates if the port is enabled or disabled. The default
setting is “Enabled.” Disabling a port turns off its receiver and
transmitter so that the port cannot forward traffic.
Link— Indicates the port has successfully connected to a port on
another switch or unit.
Auto-Neg— Indicates Auto-Negotiation. The setting is “Auto” or
“Manual.” The default is “Auto.”
Speed— Indicates the speed of the port. The possible options are
“10” for 10Mbps, “100” for 100Mbps, and “1000” for 1000Mbps.
Duplex— Indicates the duplex mode of the twisted pair port. The
setting is “Half” or “Full.”
Polarity— Indicates the port’s wiring configuration is MDI (medium
dependent interface), MDI-X (medium dependent interface
crossover), or the auto setting. This setting only applies to a
twisted pair port that is operating at 10 or 100 Mbps.
