The Port Trunking Configuration Menu screen (shown here), allows you to
view or change the following values:
• Add - If you would like to trunk a group of ports together to increase the
backplane speed of the Switch, highlight Add and press the Enter key.
The following screen will appear, showing the preset trunk groups pro-
grammed into the Switch.
The Port Trunking Configuration Menu
The two Gigabit ports have slightly different configuration settings under this
menu. There are four screens of ports (Ports 1-8 on the first screen, Ports 9-
16 on the second screen, etc.), so the Gigabit ports (Ports 25 and 26) are on
the last screen by themselves (shown here).
• Link Status and Admin Status - Same as the other 24 ports. See the
beginning of this section.
• Auto Negotiate - This value is automatically determined for these two
ports by the Switch and cannot be changed by the user.
• Speed/Duplex - This value is automatically determined for these two ports
by the Switch and cannot be changed by the user.
• Flow Control - (Off - BothWay - SendOnly - Rcv/BothWay) Flow control
for the Gigabit ports is slightly more complex because of the greater speed
involved. Flow control for these two ports can be disabled (Off), set to
monitor both transmitting and receiving (BothWay), set to monitor just the
transmitting (SendOnly), or just the receiving (Rcv/BothWay). To change
the value, highlight the desired port under Flow Control and press the
Space Bar key. This will toggle back and forth between the 4 different
options. Once you have made your choice, press the Enter key. You will
receive a message in the white status bar near the bottom of the screen that
indicates whether or not the change was accepted. The default setting for
this value is Off.
Once you have made all the changes you wish to make, highlight Return
and hit the Enter key to return to the Main Menu.
