Parameter description:
Port :
This is the logical port number for this row.
Link :
The current link state is displayed graphically. Green indicates the link is up
and red that it is down.
Current Link Speed :
Provides the current link speed of the port.
Configured Link Speed :
Select any available link speed for the given switch port.
Auto Speed selects the highest speed that is compatible with a link partner.
Disabled disables the switch port operation.
Flow Control :
When Auto Speed is selected on a port, this section indicates the flow control
capability that is advertised to the link partner. When a fixed-speed setting is
selected, that is what is used. The Current Rx column indicates whether pause
frames on the port are obeyed, and the Current Tx column indicates whether
pause frames on the port are transmitted. The Rx and Tx settings are
determined by the result of the last Auto-Negotiation.
Check the configured column to use flow control. This setting is related to the
setting for Configured Link Speed.

Enter the maximum frame size allowed for the switch port, including FCS.
Excessive Collision Mode :
Configure port transmit collision behavior.
Discard: Discard frame after 16 collisions (default).

Power Control :
The Usage column shows the current percentage of the power consumption per
port. The Configured column allows for changing the power savings mode
parameters per port.
