Table 6 Network Configuration Port Set fields
DescriptionField name
The name of the Port SetPort Set Name
The ports that have been defined for use by the Port Set
and their speed..
Ports
Any bond mode that has been defined. Bond modes
are only appropriate if there is more than one port in
the Port Set.
Bond mode
This defines whether the Port Set is VLAN enabled or
not.
VLAN Tagging Enable
This defines the amount of data contained in an Ethernet
frame, the default it 1500 bytes. Larger size frames,
Frame size
often referred to as "Jumbo" frames, can improve
performance of the Port Set. Use this field to increase
or decrease the value, which must be an integer
between 1280 and 9000.
IMPORTANT: Other devices on the network (clients
and switches) must also be configured to enable Jumbo
frames for transfer of frames larger than 1500 bytes to
be possible and to avoid packets fragmenting or
dropping.
3. If multiple ports are selected, the Bond Mode selection will be active.
If required, check the VLAN Tagging Enable box and click OK.
NOTE: VLAN tagging is not supported with Bonding Mode 6.
4. At this point you may choose to define the Subnets for the Port Set or to create additional Port
Sets by clicking on Add in the Port set section. For the purposes of this example, we shall
continue to Subnet configuration.
TIP: It is good practice to Save the network configuration at regular intervals.
