Setting Global Green Ethernet Properties
The Properties page displays and enables configuration of the Green Ethernet
mode for the switch. It also displays the current power savings.
To enable Green Ethernet and EEE and view power savings:
STEP 1 Click Port Management > Green Ethernet > Properties. The Properties page
opens.
STEP 2 Enter the values for the following fields:
• Energy Detect Mode—Disabled by default. Click the checkbox to enable.
• Short Reach—Globally enable or disable Short Reach mode if there are GE
ports on the switch.
NOTE If Short Reach is enabled, EEE must be disabled.
• Power Savings—Displays the percentage of power saved by running
Green Ethernet and Short Reach. The power savings displayed is only
relevant to the power saved by Short Reach and Energy Detect modes. The
EEE power savings is dynamic by nature since it is based on port utilization
and is therefore not taken into consideration.
• Cumulative Energy Saved—Displays the amount of energy saved from the
last switch reboot. This value is updated each time there is an event that
affects power saving.
• 802.3 Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)— Globally enable or disable EEE
mode.
• Port LEDs—Select to enable the port LEDs. When these are disabled, they
do not display link status, activity, etc.
