Configuring Interface Connections
You can use the Port Configuration or Trunk Configuration page to
enable/disable an interface, set auto-negotiation and the interface
capabilities to advertise, or manually fix the speed and duplex mode.
Note: Interface settings for the management port can only be configured
from the CLI.
Command Attributes
• Port – Port number. (Range: 1-8)
• Name – Allows you to label an interface. (Range: 1-64 characters)
• Admin – Allows you to manually disable an interface. You can disable
an interface due to abnormal behavior (e.g., excessive collisions), and
then reenable it after the problem has been resolved. You may also
disable an interface for security reasons.
• Speed/Duplex

duplex mode; i.e., with auto-negotiation disabled. (This is fixed at 10G,
full duplex for Ports 1 - 8.)
