• MDI/MDIX — Displays the Media Dependent Interface (MDI)/Media Dependent Interface with
Crossover (MDIX) status on the port. Hubs and switches are deliberately wired opposite the way end
stations are wired, so that when a hub or switch is connected to an end station, a straight through
Ethernet cable can be used, and the pairs are matched up properly. When two hubs or switches are
connected to each other, or two end stations are connected to each other, a crossover cable is used to
ensure that the correct pairs are connected. The possible field values are:
– MDIX — Use for hubs and switches.
– Auto — Use to automatically detect the cable type.
– MDI — Use for end stations.
• Current MDI/MDIX — Displays the current MDI/MDIX setting.
• LAG — Defines if the port is part of a Link Aggregation (LAG).
• PVE — Indicates that this port is protected by an uplink, so that the forwarding decisions are
overwritten by those of the port that protects it.
