LABEL DESCRIPTION
Port This is the port index number.
Admin Select Enable to activate the port or Disable to deactivate the port.
Auto
Negotiate
Select Enable and the port will negotiate the speed, duplex mode and flow
control settings with the peer port. If the peer port does not support auto-
negotiation or turns off this feature, the Switch determines the connection
speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half duplex mode.
Select Disable to configure the port settings manually. When the Switch’s
auto-negotiation is turned off, a port uses the pre-configured speed and
duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to make sure
that the settings of the peer port are the same in order to connect.
Speed
Duplex
Select the speed and the duplex mode of the Ethernet connection on this
port. Choices are 10Mbps Half, 10Mbps Full, 100Mbps Half, 100Mbps
Full and 1Gbps Full.
