44 CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURING THE SWITCH
Figure 38 Port Administration Summary Screen
Detail
Use the Detail tab to display detailed port setting
information for a port.
Figure 39 Port Administration Detail Screen
Setup
Use the Setup tab to configure the port settings. The
following options are available:
■ Port State – Enables and disables the port.
■ Flow Control – Enables and disables flow control
for the entire Switch. When flow control is
enabled, the Switch regulates the packet flow so
that a sending device does not transmit more
packets than a receiving device can process. If flow
control is disabled, packets may be dropped under
certain periods of high traffic.
Flow control is disabled by default.
■ Speed – Sets the speed mode of the port. Available
options include auto, 10, 100, and 1000. For 1000
Mbps connections, see “
Speed/Duplex for 1000
Mbps Connections” below.
Auto (or autonegotiation) sets the optimum
combination of speed and duplex that can be
supported by both ends of the link.
