Green Ethernet Properties for Ports
The Port Settings page displays the current Green Ethernet and EEE modes per port, and enables
configuring Green Ethernet on a port using the Edit Port Setting page. For the Green Ethernet modes to
operate on a port, the corresponding modes must be activated globally in the Properties page.
EEE settings are only displayed for devices that have GE ports. EEE works only when ports are set to Auto
negotiation. The exception is that EEE is still functional even when Auto Negotiation is disabled, but the port
is at 1GB or higher.
To define per port Green Ethernet settings:
STEP 1 Click Port Management > Green Ethernet > Port Settings.
