Item Description
Port The physical number of the port that corre-
sponds to the numbering of the ports on
the front of the unit. Note that ports 25
and 26 are dual function ports. When the
Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) trans
-
ceiver ports are not in use, the number
refers to the RJ-45 port. When an SFP
module is inserted, the port number refers
to this port, even if a fiber cable is not
inserted.
To configure the settings of a particular
port, click the port number.
The items AL1 to AL4 refer to trunk
groups. Use these to configure the settings
of a trunk’s member ports. See
“Configur-
ing Trunk Settings” on page 40.

active (up) or not (down)

duplex settings of the port

control is enabled on the port
