Switch. For more information about loading a configuration file for use by a client, see the DHCP server and/or
TFTP server software instructions. The user may also consult the Upload Log File window description located in
the Tools section of this manual.
If the Switch is unable to complete the DHCP auto configuration, the previously saved configuration file present in
the Switch’s memory will be used.
This window also allows the user to implement the Switch’s built-in power saving feature. When power saving is
enabled, a port which has a link down status will be turned off to save power to the Switch. This will not affect the
port’s capabilities when the port status is link up.
Users can also configure Password Encryption on the Switch.
To view the following window, click Management > Management Settings, as show below:

The fields that can be configured are described below:
Parameter Description
CLI Paging State
Command Line Interface paging stops each page at the end of the console. This
allows you to stop the scrolling of multiple pages of text beyond the limits of the
console. CLI Paging is Enabled by default. To disable it, click the Disabled radio
button.
DHCP Auto
Configuration State
Enable or disable the Switch’s DHCP auto configuration feature. When enabled, the
Switch is instructed to receive a configuration file from a TFTP server, which will set
the Switch to become a DHCP client automatically on boot-up. To employ this
method, the DHCP server must be set up to deliver the TFTP server IP address and
configuration file name information in the DHCP reply packet. The TFTP server must
be up and running and hold the necessary configuration file stored in its base
directory when the request is received from the Switch.
Power Saving State
Enable or disable the link down power saving mode of each physical port. The switch
port will go into sleep mode when a port is not connected.
Length Detection
State
Enable or disable the length detection power saving mode on the physical ports. The
switch port will reduce the power feed for shorter cables.
Password Encryption
State
Password encryption will encrypt the password configuration in configuration files.
Password encryption is Disabled by default. To enable password encryption, click the
Enabled radio button.
Running
Configuration
Under the Password Recovery option, the running configuration can be enabled or
disable. Being enabled, will allow the user to perform a password recovery of the
running configuration.
